Asylum: Hollywood Tales from My Great Depression: Brain Dis-Ease, Recovery, and Being My Mother's Son by Pantoliano, Joe (2012) Hardcover

“In 2001 New York came under attack, and thousands of people simply evaporated, leaving behind only dust and bits of gold Rolex watches. We were told that we had nothing to worry about, that we should go shopping. I was eager to please my country, for shopping had long been an answer for me, but what I couldn't pay for, I stole. I started to accumulate stuff I felt would make me feel whole: I surrounded myself with symbols of status. I believed the TV commercials with all my heart. I felt that those material things I was being sold defined me.”

“My memory is a scary place: you need a flashlight and a gun so as not to get mugged in there.”

“The fact was I never had the tools for proper living, because my family never had the tools, and I thought the entire human race was like that.”
