"Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love."

"I don't want to be alone, I want to be left alone."

"Love does not terrify me. But the going away of it does."

"Never regret anything that makes you smile."

"I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living."

"You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And you are the one who'll decide where to go."
