“Every day: Wear sunblock.Cover your gray.Do not go insane.Eat less fats and sugars.Do more sit-ups.Don’t start forgetting stuff.Trim the hair in your ears.Take calcium.Moisturize. Every day.Freeze in time to stay in one place forever.Do not get frigging old.”

“Her haunting me. The way a song stays in your head. The way you think life should be. How anything holds yourattention. How your past goes with you into every day of your future.”

“Every breath is a choice. Every minute is a choice. To be or not to be. Every time you don't throw yourself down the stairs, that's a choice. Every time you don't crash your car, you re-enlist.”

“Where every day doesn't start with an alarm clock and end with the television.”

“You have a choice. Live or die. Every breath is a choice. Every minute is a choice. Every time you don't throw yourself down the stairs, that's a choice. Every time you don't crash your car, you re-enlist.”

“You've never seen a crucifix with a Jesus who wasn't almost naked. You've never seen a fat Jesus. Or a Jesus with body hair. Every crucifix you've ever seen, the Jesus could be shirtless and modeling designer jeans or men's cologne.”

“After you find out all the things that can go wrong, your life becomes less about living and more about waiting.”
