“I've been spending my life among flyspecks... while miracles have been leaning on lampposts at 4th and Fairfax”
“3:12 pm Secretly, I admit, I find many of my classmates annoying. I've often thought to myself, 'Good grief, these people are five-year-olds. Why must I spend my days among them?' But have I ever said such things aloud? No. I have been nothing but generous to them, and kept these thoughts to myself. And how have they repaid me? Have they been grateful or kind? Ho NO!”
“All my life I've been lonely. I've been lonely at crowded parties. I've been lonely in the middle of kissing a girl and I've been lonely at camp with hundreds of fellows around. But now I'm not lonely any more.”
“I've never been to Vegas, but I've gambled all my life.”
“I've been within an inch of my life.”
“I've been variations of hurt my whole life.”
