“You never come back, not all the way. Always there is an odd distance between you and the people you love and the people you meet, a barrier thin as the glass of a mirror, you never come all the way out of the mirror; you stand, for the rest of your life, with one foot in this world and no one in another, where everything is upside down and backward and sad.”
― Marya Hornbacher, Wasted: A Memoir of Anorexia and Bulimia

“The flame that burns Twice as bright burns half as long.”
― Lao Tzu, Te-Tao Ching

“I want to be important. By being different. And these girls are all the same.”
― Sylvia Plath
