“I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”

“Narcissists will never tell you the truth. They live with the fear of abandonment and can't deal with facing their own shame.

Their needs will always be more important than telling you any truth that isn't in their favor..”
