You have to be willing to be happy. Despite the mess of your life-just accept what's happened, throw away your ideals, and create a new map of happiness to follow.

People lie. They use you and they lie, all the while feeding you bullshit about being loyal and never leaving you. No one can make that promise, because life is all about seasons, and seasons change.

Just because your pain is understandable, doesn't mean your behavior is acceptable.

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in the cage.

What makes me laugh? Richard Nixon always made me laugh.

From the very beginning, I always tried to make dialogue flow comfortably; I always did that to make it seem more authentic.
