Personal Quotes
You have to constantly redefine who you are.
I feel like a mirror reflecting back everyones perception of me.
Somebody told me that if you wake up every day and do stuff that’s easy, then you’re doing the wrong thing. If you wake up every day and do stuff that’s really hard and you manage to get through to people, then you’re doing the right thing. They might have just fooled me by telling me that, but it worked. I think that’s my philosophy.
Rage and grief are savage companions, but despair is the final undoing.
Everything I think seems to be controversial, so I feel like I need to just go away for a second and put it all down on paper until the storm passes. 6Source: azquotes.com
