"You know all that sympathy that you feel for an abused child who suffers without a good mom or dad to love and care for them? Well, they don't stay children forever. No one magically becomes an adult the day they turn eighteen. Some people grow up sooner, many grow up later. Some never really do. But just remember that some people in this world are older versions of those same kids we cry for."
"Some people are as angry as they seem to be only because it's the safest place to hide from more pain."

And people like myself, who fall into love easily, are sometimes the loneliest souls around at the end of the day."
