“There is something demoralizing about watching two people get more and more crazy about each other, especially when you are the only extra person in the room.”

The hardest thing, I think, is to live richly in the present, without letting it be tainted and spoiled out of fear for the future or regret for a badly-managed past.

So much working, reading, thinking, living to do! A lifetime is not long enough.

Eternity bores me, I never wanted it.

Intoxicated with madness, I’m in love with my sadness.

Aloneness and selfness are too important to betray for company.

There is nothing like puking with somebody to make you into old friends.

I hate handing over money to people for doing what I could just as easily do myself, it makes me nervous.

I felt myself melting into the shadows like the negative of a person I’d never seen before in my life.

The trouble was, I had been inadequate all along, I simply hadn’t thought about it.

I want to taste and glory in each day, and never be afraid to experience pain; and never shut myself up in a numb core of nonfeeling, or stop questioning and criticizing life and take the easy way out.

I smile, now, thinking: we all like to think we are important enough to need psychiatrists.

I want to be able to sleep in an open field, to travel west, to walk freely at night.

Perfection is terrible, it cannot have children.

Love life day by day, color by color, touch by touch.

I am dead to them, even though I once flowered.

I find that in a novel I can get more of life, perhaps not such intense life, but certainly more of life than in poetry.

It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.

Eeveryone says you can only fall in love one, but thats not true because every time i see you i fall in love with you all over again.

I’m glad we had the times together just to laugh and sing a song, seems like we just got started and then before you know it, the times we had together were gone.

Always remember this: ‘A kiss will never miss, and after many kisses a miss becomes a misses.’

I definitely know that love is the most powerful thing of all.

And ever has it been known that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.

And when you appear all the rivers sound in my body, bells shake the sky, and a hymn fills the world.

If you can make a girl laugh, you can make her do anything.
