“Where you are
and what you are doing
is something you have done
dozens of times before
without any problems

Recognize that you are going to get out of this
that you always get out of this
that you are going to live
that you won't go crazy

I am telling you that you will live,
because you always live,
because you are strong
and beautiful.”
― Samantha Schutz, I Don't Want To Be Crazy

“When I try to save other people am I trying to save myself? Am I covering up for my lack of strength by putting people back together?”
― Samantha Schutz, I Don't Want To Be Crazy

“In one aspect, yes, I believe in ghosts, but we create them. We haunt ourselves.”

― Laurie Halse Anderson, Wintergirls
