The problem with secret crushes: in the absence of requital the love turns bitter.

Go without hate, but not without rage. Heal the world.

When you finally come out, there's a pain that stops, and you know it will never hurt like that again, no matter how much you lose or how bad you die.

Self pity becomes your oxygen. But you learned to breathe it without a gasp. So, nobody even notices you're hurting.

As an artist, you reach for the pen that's full of blood.

There is this common notion that people are shallow and ignorant until they go out and see the world. I, on the other hand, went out and in comparison realized I was in pretty good standing.

But when I close my eyes, I'm more like THIS under the surface: I'm laughing and scheming and dreaming.

The internet: always proving that you're not quite as special as you suspected.

Break not the rose; its fragrance and beauty are surely sufficient, resting contented with these, never a thorn shall you feel.

We must always be on guard lest, under the pretext of keeping one commandment, we be found breaking another.

I'm a longtime fan of American Eagle, so when they approached me about joining their 'Live Your Life' campaign, it already felt like an organic fit.

Romance is important to me, and to have a romance with your husband takes a bit of doing. The key is to make sure your partner misses you. That means you have to take yourself away.
