    “Listen to the people who love you. Believe that they are worth living for even when you don't believe it. Seek out the memories depression takes away and project them into the future.

Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance.”

    Haunts me night and day.”

    To hell, my love, with you.”
