“I will dream if I want to, I said, and my death is my own affair.”
“Being with him made me want to make my own dreams, discover my own path. I was my best self when I was with him.”
“I could not see my own cold light, but I imagined it to be shimmering brightly, with Death looming close by. After such a dream, how could it not?”
“I want to die in my own way. It's my illness, my death, my choice. This is what saying yes means.”
“My body is my own," I said. "I may choose to share it with someone, but it's not for sale or for hire, nor is it a reward. I'd rather starve to death than use it as such.”
“I wanted to live with hope; I wanted to love with my heart and turn my dreams into reality.”
