“Every day I am someone else. I am myself-I know I am myself-but I am also someone else.It has always been like this.”

“When I am with you, there is nowhere else I'd rather be. And I am a person who always wants to be somewhere else.”

“I am a drifter, and as lonely as that can be, it is also remarkably freeing. I will never define myself in terms of anyone else. I will never feel the pressure of peers or the burden of parental expectation. I can view everyone as pieces of a whole, and focus on the whole, not the pieces. I have learned to observe, far better than most people observe. I am not blinded by the past or motivated by the future. I focus on the present because that is where I am destined to live.”

“I have to keep reminding myself -- this is not me. It is chemistry. It is biology. It is not who I am.”

“I'm not a very happy person," I told him."But sometimes I can trick myself into thinking I am.”

“I am constantly torn between killing myself and killing everyone around me. Those seem to be the two choices. Everything else is just killing time.”
