“I feel like my life is so scattered right now. Like it's all the small pieces of paper and someone's turned on the fan.

But they're not that important. You know what's important? Who would you die for? Who do you wake up at five forty-five in the morning for even though you don't even know why he needs you? Whose drunken nose would you pick?!”
