I just get bored easily. As I’m sure other people do too.

I know I should stop smoking, but it scares me. I mean, what would I turn to next?

People are always so surprised when they meet me. Firstly, that I’m ‘so tiny’, and secondly that I’m ‘so sweet’. They seem surprised that they’re not scared of me.

Mistaken, always second guessing, underestimated, look I’m still around.

I’d rather bleed with cuts of love than live without any scars.

Use a sweet tongue, courtesy, and gentleness, and thou mayest manage to guide an elephant by a hair.

That’s the great secret of creativity. You treat ideas like cats: you make them follow you.

Man is, beyond dispute, the most excellent of created beings, and the vilest animal is a dog; but the sages agree that a grateful dog is better than an ungrateful man.
