“Even now - in the final hour of my life -I'm falling in love again.”

“I'm tired again, I've tried again, and now my heart is full.And I just can't explain...so I won't even try to.”

“I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour, but heaven knows I'm miserable now.”

“When I'm lying in my bed I think about life and I think about death and neither one particularly appeals to me.”

“These tears I'm wailing,I spill not without reason.Remove them, my dearest love.Take me to the place I've been dreaming of,where the grotesquely lonely meet the grotesquely lonelyand they whisper,just very softly,Please be mine, Dearest Love.”

“Now this might disturb you, but I find I'm OK by myself;and I don't need you or your benevolence to make sense.”

“Age gives you a great sense of proportion. You can be very hard on yourself when you're younger but now I just think 'well everybody's absolutely mad and I'm doing quite well.”
