“Left to my own devices, there was a streak of masochism in my single-minded, obsessive habits. I didn't exercise much, but when I did, it was in gruesome marathons of overexertion. I didn't eat enough, and when I did it was in wild, sobering feasts, remembering that I even had a body. I made myself sick. Unregulated, I would have eventually destroyed myself. Yet even knowing this didn't motivate me to change my ways.”

“The drive to face and overcome personal traumas shaped a persons motivations and defined their character. To reveal a character, one simply needed to show the path they choose at life's crossroads.”

“They say they have the right to do whatever they want, but hey, that's not how life works. Life's not meant to be comfortable and convenient all the time.”

“What happens when you're lost in a single thought, twenty four hours a day, seven days a week? And what if that thought is wrapped in excruciating memories? The more your brain soaks in the pain, the heavier it gets, and then you fall into the endless sea of sadness, and this brain turns into a massive anchor, dragging you down into the abyss. So, you're breathing differently - not through your nose, mouth or gills - yet you insist you're still human, though you're living as something less. You try to forget drowning you brain with alcohol, even ignoring hunger, but most of your memories evaporate, leaving you unable to say who you even are.”
