But trust me when I tell you that one time is all that it takes to set this into motion. It can and it will."

Most people are no match for their addictions. They will be driven to do things they would normally never have considered all in the name of getting high. Sad, but true. So if you're thinking of trying drugs, keep in mind that all the people you will be dealing with are likely to steal from you and lie to you at your own expense."

"Everything either is, was or will be. Time doesn't really exist. It's just something we have made up that makes it easier for us to grasp the universe."

"The parts of me that hurt the worst want me to write something for them, but I can't. I don't know what to say. I'm lost in all this sadness, and so are they."

"Sooner or later in life, we will all take our own turn being in the position we once had someone else in."
