“Hope is something really tough and tenacious you have to give up. It’s an addiction to break.”

“Help me give up my addiction to Hope.”

“You have to give up! you have to give up!You have to realize that someday you will die,Until you know that, you are useless!”

“I wanted to write about the moment when your addictions no longer hide the truth from you. When your whole life breaks down. That's the moment when you have to somehow choose what your life is going to be about.”

“This should be my favorite part, being held and crying with Big Bob without hope. We all work so hard all the time. This is the only place I ever really relax and give up.”

“You have a class of young men and women, and they want to give their lives to something. Advertising has these people chasing cars and clothes they don't need. Generations have been working in jobs they hate, just so they can buy what they don't really need.”

“...and maybe we have to break everything to make something better out of ourselves.”
