Today I bought two lottery tickets, because I had a feeling that it would be now or never - they were both blanks. So I am not going to be rich after all. Nothing at all to be done about it.

I want to be a pretty corpse.

When he says he loves me, it only means he loves me at that particular instant. Like his promises, which he never keeps. Why does he torment me like this, when he could finish it off at once?

He has so often told me he is madly in love with me, but what does that mean when I haven't had a good word from him in three months?

I am racking my brains to find out why he left without saying goodby to me.

If I had a dog I would not feel so lonely, but I suppose that is asking for too much.

Perhaps he wanted to be alone with Dr. G., who was here, but he should have let me know. At Hoffmann's I felt I was sitting on hot coals, expecting him to arrive every moment.

I am so infinitely happy that he loves me so much, and I pray that it will always be like this. It won't be my fault if he ever stops loving me.

I have now reached the happy age of 23. No, happy is not quite the right word. At this particular moment I am certainly not happy.

God, I am afraid he won't give me his answer today. If only somebody would help me - it is all so terribly depressing.

She builds people up because she knows what it is like to be torn down.

Most of the trouble in the world is caused by people wanting to be important.

What must human beings be, to destroy what they can never create?

We must see all scars as beauty. Okay? This will be our secret. Because take it from me, a scar does not form on the dying. A scar means, 'I survived'.

Did you ever think about life as a metaphor for television?

I love treason but hate a traitor.

The thing about me not doing superhero movies, that's not true at all. Movies are movies. You just go.

Only a woman can write what it is to feel as a woman, to be a woman.

It [what you choose to do] has got to be something that you're passionate about because otherwise you won't have the perseverance to see it through.
