“Some friends don't understand this. They don't understand how desperate I am to have someone say, I love you and I support you just the way you are because you're wonderful just the way you are. They don't understand that I can't remember anyone ever saying that to me. I am so demanding and difficult for my friends because I want to crumble and fall apart before them so that they will love me even though I am no fun, lying in bed, crying all the time, not moving. Depression is all about If you loved me you would.”
― Elizabeth Wurtzel, Prozac Nation

“Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will.”

“Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.”

“The greater the artist, the greater the doubt. Perfect confidence is granted to the less talented as a consolation prize."
