Do you know what I mean?

Lloyd Dobler: No.

"I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair. I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare. I hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind. I hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme. I hate it, I hate the way you're always right. I hate it when you lie. I hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry. I hate it that you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call. But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you. Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all. "

- Kat Stratford


Kat Stratford: You can't just buy me a guitar every time you screw up, you know.

"Heaven is big enough for everyone to have their own universe."

- Albert in "What Dreams May Come"


"Daydream, delusion, limousine, eyelash / Oh baby with your pretty face / Drop a tear in my wineglass / Look at those big eyes / See what you mean to me / Sweet-cakes and milkshakes / I'm delusion angel / I'm fantasy parade / I want you to know what I think / Don't want you to guess anymore / You have no idea where I came from / We have no idea where we're going / Latched in life / Like branches in a river/ Flowing downstream / Caught in the current / I'll carry you / You'll carry me / That's how it could be / Don't you know me? / Don't you know me by now?"

- Street Poet in "Before Sunrise"


"I don't know. For a lot of people, living alone is a nasty hang. Not for me. My music is all the juice I'll need. I'm a self-contained unit. A solo artist. "

"I knew the day you met me,
I could love you if you let me,
Though you touched my cheek
and said how easy you'd forget me,
You said, "Butterflies are free,
And so are we."

"The more you love, the more you can love - and the more intensely you love. Nor is there any limit on how many you can love. If a person had time enough, he could love all of that majority whoare decent and just."

"Scar tissue has no character. It's not like skin.
It doesn't show age or illness or pallor or tan.
It has no pores, no hair, no wrinkles. It's like a slipcover.
It shields and disguises what's beneath.
That's why we grow it, we have something to hide"

--Susanna Kaysen
