“Edit your life frequently and ruthlessly. It’s your masterpiece after all.”
“To write a diary every day is like returning to one’s own vomit.”
“If a poet has a dream, it is not of becoming famous, but of being believed.”
“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”
“I think hell is something you carry around with you. Not somewhere you go.”
“I would set myself on fire if you ever complained that your feet were cold.”
“Faith is the art of holding on to things in spite of your changing moods and circumstances.”

“It’s not our job to toughen our children up to face a cruel and heartless world. It’s our job to raise children who will make the world a little less cruel and heartless.”
“You will always fall in love, and it will always be like having your throat cut, just that fast.”
