    “I lied and said I was busy.
    I was busy;
    but not in a way most people understand.

    I was busy taking deeper breaths.
    I was busy silencing irrational thoughts.
    I was busy calming a racing heart.
    I was busy telling myself I am okay.

    Sometimes, this is my busy -
    and I will not apologize for it.”

    Jay Asher
    “That’s what i love about poetry. The more abstract, the better. The stuff were your not sure what the poets talking about. You may have an idea, but you cant be sure. Not a hundred percent. Each word, specifically chosen, could have a million different meanings. Is it a stand-in ―a symbol for another idea? Does it fit into a larger, more hidden, metaphor?
    ...I hated poetry until someone showed me how to appreciate it. He told me to see poetry as a puzzle. Its up to the reader to decipher the code, or the words, based on everything they know about life and emotions.”

    “Music is never about music. If it was, we'd be writing songs about guitars. But we don't. We write songs about women.

    Women will crush you, you know? I suppose everybody hurts everybody, but women always seem to get back up, you ever notice that? Women are always still standing.”

    “I've wasted a lot of time in my life. I've thought too much about what people will say or what they're gonna think. And sometimes it's over silly things like going to the grocery store or going to the post office. But there have been times when I really stopped myself from doing something special. All because I was scared someone might look at me and decide I wasn't good enough. But you don't have to bother with that nonsense. I wasted all that time so you don't have to.”
