“Do not let what you think they think of you make you stop and question everything you are.”
― Carrie Fisher, The Princess Diarist

“You endure what is unbearable, and you bear it. That is all.”
― Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Princess

“It’s not nice being inside my head. It’s a nice place to visit but I don’t want to live in here. It’s too crowded; too many traps and pitfalls.”
― Carrie Fisher, The Princess Diarist

“I am closer to who I want to be when I am alone lately. With people, I hear my voice and I just wonder who or what I’m doing all this for. Spreading myself out in front of people. Devaluing my ostensible worth by being so readily available to almost any random pedestrian who wanders into the crosswalk of my focus. If someone is within an earshot I shoot off at the mouth.”
― Carrie Fisher, The Princess Diarist
