“Simple pleasures. Makes life worthwhile.”

“I wish I knew how to change my patterns--all of them. But it's like the blood in my finger. I screw up and there it is, just the stuff I'm made of, making a mess again.”

“I would laugh at all my provincial inmates, but I’m too busy lusting. I’m not usually interested in a guy with “take a number” on his forehead, but this guy doesn’t have a forehead — it’s buried in messy blond hair. And he’s not one of the twenty guys I’ve known my entire pubescent life. he smiles like the Fourth of July. What’s a dumb girl to do but get in line with everyone else not in his league? I guess journalism just became my most beloved class.”

“Maybe the future is like rowing for shore. Your only choice is to try or give up.”

“Sometimes you have a fairy godmother, and sometimes you have to be your own”

“Like what? You think I'm gay or something?”

“Wolves never worry about yesterday or tomorrow.”
