"Birds... scream at the top of their lungs in horrified hellish rage every morning at daybreak to warn us all of the truth. They know the truth. Screaming bloody murder all over the world in our ears, but sadly we don't speak bird."

"You do learn things and one of them is that happiness has nothing to do with validation from other people, the important thing is being happy with yourself ... finding something that is important to you and sticking with it no matter what anyone says. The truth is you've got to really be tough because there are all kinds of forces that are always trying to get you to do things their way ... trying to tell you that you are throwing your life away if you don't follow their advice."
"I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not."
"I hate myself, and I want to die"
"Life is a waste of time and time is a waste of life, so let's all get wasted and have the time of our lives."
"Wanting to be someone else is a waste of who you are"
