The only thing worse than an unwanted life lived, is a botched attempt to end it. Some Germain guy. Acids stain you, rivers are damp, razors pain you, drugs cause cramp, guns aren't lawful, a noose might give, gas smells awful, might as well live. Doretha Parker.

"All of the disadvantages in this world stems from a person's lack of ability."

""I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."

I also like the whole lyrics of "Blumenkranz", the theme song of Ragyo Kiryuin from Kill la Kill, it is in german and translates as follows:

"I want to become stronger
because our world is very cruel
It is advisable to remove withered flowers
You ask me if I'll go with you
You whisper to me in my ear
You ask me if I take your hand
I have no reason to reject you
You ask me if I'll go with you
You whisper to me in my ear
You ask me if I take your hand
You whisper to me
Yes, I am much stronger than I ever thought
Fly higher
Run much faster
Forget not the truth
Yes, I am much stronger than I ever thought
I remove withered flowers
Why do you look so sad
This world is cruel
It is sad but true
This world is strange
It is questionable but true
This world is cruel
It is sad but true
This world is strange
It is questionable but true
Is the flower garden real or fake
I want to become stronger
because our world is very cruel
It is advisable to remove withered flowers
Yes, I am much stronger than I ever thought
Fly higher
Run much faster
Forget not the truth
Yes, I am much stronger than I ever thought
I remove withered flowers
Why do you look so sad
What do you want from me
I might want or not, I must pursue the enemy
I am not free from this world
What do you want from me
I might want or not, I must pursue the enemy
I am not free from this world
No matter how tough you are
Fly higher
Run much faster
You are very strong
You bind a flower wreath
Why do you look so sad?"

To say "I love you" one must know first how to say the "I"

-The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand.

One of my favorite books. The quote is about individuality, self awareness, and identity. All of which I've always felt I lack.

I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.

"When a man gets it into his head to do something, and when he exclusively occupies himself in his design, he must succeed, whatever the difficulties. That man will become Grand Visier or Pope."

"it's never too late to have a happy childhood"
- heard this from still life with woodpecker by tom robbins

a monologue from frances ha (2012):



"I want this one moment. It's - it's what I want in a relationship… which might explain why I am single now. Ha, ha. It's, uh - It's kind of hard to - it's that thing when you're with someone… and you love them and they know it… and they love you and you know it… but it's a party… and you're both talking to other people… and you're laughing and shining… and you look across the room… and catch each other's eyes… but - but not because you're possessive… or it's precisely sexual… but because… that is your person in this life. And it's funny and sad, but only because this life will end, and it's this secret world… that exists right there… in public, unnoticed, that no one else knows about. It's sort of like how they say that other dimensions exist all around us, but we don't have the ability to perceive them. That's - That's what I want out of a relationship. Or just life, I guess. Love. — I sound stoned. I'm not stoned. — Thanks for dinner. Bye."

"Love me when I least deserve it, because that's when I really need it."
(Origin - seems to be a Swedish proverb)

That's it.
That's me.
That quote hits deeply.
That's what I would have needed, and couldn't get. Because my actions made sure of that. And because we're all just human and can only bear a certain amount of anything.
And TRD, anxieties, and whatever else it is that fucked me up so much in the first place, kept me in that neverending circle of torment and loss.

Ironically, I will least of all deserve it when I'm dead - but then I won't need it anymore.

"Don't stop until the race is won."
From my father's suicide note. Having to reread it again was very painful.
