“It is the mind which creates the world around us, and even though we stand side by side in the same meadow, my eyes will never see what is beheld by yours, my heart will never stir to the emotions with which yours is touched.”
—George R. Gissing (via spiritd3sire)
“A stranger can see in an instant something in you that you might spend years learning about yourself. How awful we all are when we look at ourselves under a light, finally seeing our reflections. How little we know about ourselves. How much forgiveness it must take to love a person, to choose not to see their flaws, or to see those flaws and love the person anyway. If you never forgive you’ll always be alone.”
—Stephen Elliott, The Adderall Diaries (via spiritd3sire)
“
CL: One thing you’ve always done, I realized recently, is write about these muses, these other females, these goddesses. These parts of yourself. You don’t write big, sexy love ballads about men. I wondered why that was for you? Because I do the same thing. I was listening to a song of Billy Corgan’s yesterday called I Need a Lover. It’s sexy, okay. But I’m listening and I’m going, I can’t write like this.
SN: You know how else asked me that same question a long time ago: Prince. We were really close for a while—we never went to bed together, but we had something that was very, very special. And he always said, Why don’t you write songs that are more sexual? And I said, Well, because that’s no the way I am in my real life. I am not a person who walks naked through the house. I will always have something beautiful on. It will be beautiful, and it will enhance me.
CL: Maybe what Prince was trying to say is you should be more, “I want to fuck you, baby.”
SN: But I believe that there is a certain amount of mysticism that all women should have, that you should never tell all your secrets, that you should never tell everybody all about you. I never have.

Wrote a rap for arts and humanities class.
Electrocution
alright
I’ve had just about enough of this going nowhere stuff
you can stay here for all I care but I gotta go
you know, they say time is money so
I guess I must be going broke then
serving tables, bustin’ ass hopin’ they just might spot me a ten
I’m dreaming up my revolution; a sudden change in the situation
all I keep getting from anybody is short change and toleration
will somebody please grab the defibrillator ?
to jump start the hearts of America
with just the right amount of electrocution
before we’ve lost ourselves in all this delusion and mass confusion
wait. No.
stop.
there’s something that you musta forgot
beyond your computer and iPhone screen
the sun is blazing hot
and the sky is super blue
and there ain’t nobody alive that’s youer that you
and I can’t tell any of you what may transpire
so go ahead, set your world on fire
and I don’t know if we’ll survive the night
But you’re alive right now, right?
So here’s a match for you to ignite.
“Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars. You have to let go at some point in order to move forward.”
