“there is light in the darkness. It’s there—you just have to look hard enough for it.”
― Matthew Perry, Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing

“You never know where one thing will lead... I guess the lesson is, take every opportunity, because something might come of it.”
― Matthew Perry, Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing

“Addiction has ruined so much of my life it’s not funny. It’s ruined relationships. It’s ruined the day-to-day process of being me. I have a friend who doesn’t have any money, lives in a rent-controlled apartment. Never made it as an actor, has diabetes, is constantly worried about money, doesn’t work. And I would trade places with him in a second. In fact, I would give up all the money, all the fame, all the stuff, to live in a rent-controlled apartment—I’d trade being worried about money all the time to not have this disease, this addiction.
And not only do I have the disease, but I also have it bad. I have it as bad as you can have it, in fact. It’s backs-to-the-wall time all the time. It’s going to kill me (I guess something has to). Robert Downey Jr., talking about his own addiction, once said, “It’s like I have a gun in my mouth with my finger on the trigger, and I like the taste of the metal.” I got it; I understand that.”

“If you stood up for me when I couldn’t stand up for myself: from the bottom of my heart, thank you.”
