I've spent years living safely to secure a longer life, and look where that's gotten me. I'm at the finish line but I never ran the race.

Read quote

No matter how we choose to live, we both die at the end.

Read quote

I guess I could call this energy freedom. No one will be around to judge me tomorrow. No one will send messages to his friends about the lame kid who had no rhythm. And in this moment, how stupid it is to care hits me like a punch to the face.

Read quote

Yes, we live, or we're given the chance to, at least, but sometimes living is hard and complicated because of fear.

Read quote

Puzzles are sort of like life because you can mess up and rebuild later, and you're likely smarter the next time around.

Read quote

I'd give in to the grief but make sure I wasn't loud enough to draw attention from those who think words will make me feel better.

Read quote

But hey, if there's one bright side to your dying, it's that you aren't around to tell me things I don't like hearing. I'm sorry. That was a dickhead thing to say. I need a condom for my mouth.

Read quote

Then there's the kind of zombie I've become now: the one who has lost everything— his brain, his heart, his light, his direction. He wanders the world, bumping into this, tripping over that, but keeps going and going. That is life after death.

Read quote

Every universe I've created lately, your face keeps popping up in it. And I thought that if you can't be cool with that, then I wouldn't hate you, but I might need some time for myself until we've had enough distance that I can imagine made-up worlds without you automatically appearing.

Read quote

Sometimes pain is so unmanageable that the idea of spending another day with it seems impossible. Other times pain acts as a compass to help you get through the messier tunnels of growing up. But the pain can only help you find happiness if you can remember it.
