“It's so hard to find the place somewhere in the middle of the best and worst I've felt.”

“Impartially, shrewdly, I considered suicide, though not in my worst moments. The bottle of pills. The note: 'No hard feelings, everyone, but I've thought about it and it's just not on, is it? It's nearly on, but not quite. No? Anyway, all the best, C.”

“I've always felt that the best whips and chains are in the mind. With a little creativity, the physical ones are hardly necessary.”

“Being the best was as equal to being in the middle, which was equal to being the worst. All were merely a state of being. It was how a person felt in that state and why they were in that state that was the important thing.”

“The middle of the road is where the white line is—and that’s the worst place to drive.”

“The worst place to be is in the middle. When elephants fight, the grass gets trampled.”
