Sylvia Plath

I’m manically depressed because the girl I’ve finally realized I’ve always been in love with, and who I was beginning to think just might love me back, turned around and got herself engaged to my best friend, who, frankly, doesn’t deserve her. Does that answer your question? Meg Cabot
Trying to be perfect may be inevitable for people who are smart and ambitious and interested in the world and its good opinion...What is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself. A. Whitney Brown
Andre Breton quote: "with the end of my breath, which is the beginning of yours."
with the end of my breath, which is the beginning of yours. Andre Breton
I was already beginning to realize that the only way to conduct oneself in a situation where bombs rained down and bullets whizzed past, was to accept the dangers and all the consequences as calmly as possible. Fretting and sweating about it all was not going to help. Roald Dahl
Stephen King quote: "They were close to the end of the beginning . . ."
They were close to the end of the beginning . . . Stephen King
