"Isn’t it funny how we live inside of the lies we believe?"
A.S. King (Please Ignore Vera Dietz)
"Hey-the whole freaking world was built from delusional optimism and folly. What makes you so special? We’re all just making it up as we go along. No one really knows what they’re doing. Anyone who tells you otherwise is talking out of their butt."
A.S. King (Please Ignore Vera Dietz)
"On one hand, it’s nice on the other side. Secrets don’t exist. There’s nothing to ignore, and no destiny. On the other hand, the same thing is possible in life. If only we’d start paying attention to the right stuff."
A.S. King (Please Ignore Vera Dietz)
"The thing you don’t see while you’re still there on Earth is how easy it is to change your mind. When you’re in it and you’re mixed up with feelings, assumptions, influences, and misconceptions, things seem completely impossible to chnage. From here, you see that change is as easy as flicking a light switch in your brain."
A.S. King (Please Ignore Vera Dietz)
"The trick is remembering that change is as easy as you make it. The trick is remembering that you are the boss of you."
A.S. King (Please Ignore Vera Dietz)
"I’m still kind of a mess. But I think we all are. No one’s got it all together. I don’t think you ever do get it totally together. Probably if you did manage to do it you’d spontanously combust. I think that’s a law of nature. If you ever manage to become perfect, you have to die instantly before you can ruin things for everyone else."
Michael Thomas Ford (Suicide Notes)
