“There is never a sudden revelation, a complete and tidy explanation for why it happened, or why it ends, or why or who you are. You want one and I want one, but there isn't one. It comes in bits and pieces, and you stitch them together wherever they fit, and when you are done you hold yourself up, and still there are holes and you are a rag doll, invented, imperfect. And yet you are all that you have, so you must be enough. There is no other way.”
― Marya Hornbacher, Wasted : A Memoir of Anorexia and Bulimia

“I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.”
― Edgar Allan Poe

“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.”
― J. Krishnamurti

“It is sometimes an appropriate response to reality to go insane.”
― Philip K. Dick, Valis
