“The more I like me, the less I want to pretend to be other people.”

“I think life is just a process of settling for less and pretending you never wanted more." - Elizabeth”

“I don't want everyone to like me; I should think less of myself if some people did.”

“All my friends thought I was a very happy human being. Because that's how I acted- like a really happy human being. But all that pretending made me tired. If I acted the way I felt, then I doubt my friends would have really hung out with me. So the pretending wasn't all bad. The pretending made me less lonely. But in another was, it made me more lonely because I felt like a fraud. I've always felt like a fake human being.”

“I want to be more like James Bond, and less like Ian Fleming.”

“For the life of me, I don’t understand these bumper stickers. I would think, the more you believe in something, the less you’d want to stick it on your car. Just ridiculous the way people flaunt beliefs like they’re pocketbooks.”
