I’ve reached the point where I hardly care whether I live or die. The world will keep on turning without me, and I can’t do anything to change events anyway. I’ll just let matters take their course and concentrate on studying and hope that everything will be all right in the end. — “The Diary of a Young Girl”, by Anne Frank

Hun følte at det som var inne i henne ikke bare var mørke, det var som svart farve, som tjære som klebet seg til alt hun så, alle tanker hun hadde. Hun hang fast i denne sorte, ubønnhørlige substansen i sjelen. For det var ikke bare mørke, det var et stoff, et svart giftstoff som drepte henne. — “Drømmen og hjulet”, av Jens Bjørneboe

I barely knew him, and heaven knows this was no way to get a guy interested. You were supposed to be peppy and bright for boys, no matter how bad you felt inside. At least that’s what Mother always told me. “Don’t let him see how crazy you are”, she’d say. “No one wants anyone who’s down like you. — “Prozac Nation” by Elizabeth Wurtzel

My mind just goes off doing its own thing, never consulting me at all about whether it’s all right to feel this way or that.

Homesickness is just a state of mind for me. I’m always missing someone or someplace or something, I’m always trying to get back to some imaginary somewhere. My life has been one long longing. — “Prozac Nation” by Elizabeth Wurtzel

But who really cares? Some people are born to single mothers and turn out just fine. I don’t think it matters how many parents you’ve got, so long as the ones who are around make their presence felt in a positive way. — “Prozac Nation” by Elizabeth Wurtzel

I wish you would tell me your secret. To get back my youth I would do anything in the world, except take exercise, get up early, or be respectable. — “The picture of Dorian Grey” by Oscar Wilde

Ah! Realize your youth while you have it. Don’t squander the gold of your days, listening to the tedious, trying to improve the hopeless failure, or giving away your life to the ignorant, the common, and the vulgar. These are the sickly aims, the false ideals, of our age! Live! Live the wonderful life that is in you. — “The picture of Dorian Gray” by Oscar Wilde

Cats are like witches. They don’t fight to kill, but to win. There is a difference. There’s no point in killing an opponent. That way, they won’t know they’ve lost, and to be a real winner you have to have an opponent who is beaten and knows it. There’s no triumph over a corpse, but a beaten opponent, who will remain beaten every day of the remainder of their sad and wretched life, is something to treasure. — “Witches Abroad”, A Discworld novel by Terry Pratchett
