“ALWAYS KEEP YOUR DREAMS ALIVE”

“I write you a letter that beginsWith I love you and ends with I love you andSomewhere in the middle is one goodbye forEvery hurt”

“Stop thirsting for things that are bitter,Go crazy here, here in these arms that are stillWrapped around the absent shape of you,Go crazy with me, thrash about in our bedAnd weep and wail and call me by her name,At least have the courage to let our hearts break together.”

“Just as I’ve always known there are monsters in the world, monsters and things even more evil, I’ve always known that it is God who keeps evil at bay.”

“You can’t put much on paper before you betray your secret self, try as you will to keep things civil.”

“MS. THOMPSON, it said in heavy block letters, PLEASE KEEP YOUR FELINE OFF MY PROPERTY. IF I SEE IT AGAIN, I WILL EAT IT.”

“If you're alive, kick into drive. Chase whimsies. See if you can turn dreams into a way to make a living, if not an entire way of life.”
