“I'd rather be eccentric and artistic, than be normal and have not one inch of art flowing through my heart.”
“I think I'd rather have my heart broke than do the breaking. —Lena”
“I'd rather be weird and happy than normal and miserable.”
“But I'd rather help than watch. I'd rather have a heart than a mind. I'd rather expose too much than too little. I'd rather say hello to strangers than be afraid of them. I would rather know all this about myself than have more money than I need. I'd rather have something to love than a way to impress you.”
“I'd rather love a million times and have my heart broken every time, than hold a permanitely empty heart forever.”
“I'd rather sing one wild song and burst my heart with it, than live a thousand years watching my digestion and being afraid of the wet.”
