I maintain a balanced view of the world, but that balance is always in my favour.
Those young women who want a career... They can have mine.
Men think if they're getting laid, everything is fine. Women think if they feel good, everything is fine. Neither turns out to be a very good indicator.
She'll never love you better than she loves her own children.
something in me had got broken, but not so broken I didn't remember what it was.
A man can reach into anything and turn it to his cause. It's not want, or desire, just certainty. Only be assured that whatever you reach into will reach into you in turn.
Do you know why the leaves change colour?... Before a tree sheds a leaf it pumps it full of all the poison it can't rid itself of otherwise.
