It's as if a child with a brush and too much enthusiasm has been set free with a tin of black paint inside me.

I wish I had a boyfriend. I wish he lived in the wardrobe on a coat hanger. Whenever I wanted, I could get him out and he'd look at me the way boys do in films, as if I'm beautiful.

We make patterns, we share moments.

I love you. I love you. I send this message through my fingers and into his, up his arm and into his heart. Hear me. I love you. And I'm sorry to leave you.

I love you. It hurts more than anything ever has, but I do. So don't you dare tell me I don't. Don't you ever say it again!

I lean back on the pillows and look at the corners of the room. When I was a kid, I always wanted to live on the ceiling - it looked so clean and uncluttered, like the top of a cake.

Moments. All gathering towards this one.

It's all right, Tessa, you can go. We love you. You can go now.''Why are you saying that?''She might need permission to die, Cal.''I don't want her to. She doesn't have my permission.

Maybe you should say goodbye, Cal.''No.''It might be important.''It might make her die.

You want some sweet and lovely things, Tessa, but be careful. Other people can't always give you what you want.

An unhurried sense of time is in itself a form of wealth.

A sincere praise to God makes soul prospers.

A system is corrupt when it is strictly profit-driven, not driven to serve the best interests of its people, but those of multinational corporations.

Don’t limit your potential, embrace then accentuate the Power of your Heart’s consciousness.

Feelings are invulnerable to rational thought.

Your mind cannot possibly understand God. Your heart already knows. Minds were designed for carrying out the orders of the heart.

If practice makes perfect, and no one's perfect, then why practice?

I don't read the news anymore because I know it would make me depressed. So instead, I make beauty. I make movies.

Not only do I not want to be stereotyped as this Asian girl who fights - gee, what a wonder - but also I have more to offer than that.

I'm kinda like a needle in a haystack right now cause I haven't blown up yet.
