“You feel real good, Lana. Makes me forget everything else”
“You make me forget everything. You are the best therapy.”
“You know one thing that Mr. Powell taught me? He taught me that sometimes, art can make you forget everything else all around you. That's what are can do.”
“Nobody in my life has ever known me the way you do. Nobody in my life has ever made me feel as good as you do. You know me, you know everything about me, and when you leave me, you're going to be leaving the real me, the me nobody else has ever seen, that's who you're going to be rejecting.”
“People will tell you that the world is divided into good and bad, and that I’m bad, but it’s not, and I’m not. The real truth is that I make choices based on my circumstances. We all do. It trumps everything else, whether you know it or not. There has never been a good or bad.”
“Sometimes when you're upset it's so easy to forget what's real and go for what makes you feel better. (131)”
