• I think we spend a lot of time denying our mothers. We understand other women earlier than we understand our mothers because we're trying so hard to say, "I'm not going to be like my mother" that we blame her for her condition. If we didn't blame her for her condition, we would have to admit that it could happen to us, too. I spent a long time doing that, thinking that my mother's problems were uniquely her fault.

• Me faltaba alguna habilidad esencial para atraer a la gente, para dar y recibir amor con facilidad. Significaba demasiado para mí. Parecía estar ahuyentando a las personas que más quería. Por fin me había dado cuenta de que conseguir que alguien te quisiera era como tratar de engatusar a un pájaro para que se posara en tu dedo... no sucedería a menos que dejaras de esforzarte tanto.

• You really have to wonder why we even bother to get up in the morning. I mean, really: Why work? Simply to buy more stuff? That's just not enough. Look at us all. What's the common assumption that got us all from there to here? What makes us deserve the ice cream and running shoes and wool Italian suits we have? I mean, I see all of us trying so hard to acquire so much stuff, but I can't help but feeling that we didn't merit it.

  Douglas Coupland

• The temptation many creative people I know have is to strive for popularity. To make, do, and say things that other people like in the hopes of pleasing them. This motivation is nice. And sometimes the end result is good. But often what happens in trying so hard to please other people, especially many other people, the result is mediocre.

• You guys (Boko Haram) are trying so hard to convince everybody that you're such badasses. But all you've done with this kidnapping is highlight who the real badasses are, the kids you kidnapped. Compared to a teenager who knows that her desire for an education could get her dragged into a snake infested jungle to be sold as a bribe to some demented, stick-chewing cartoon villain but still gets up and goes to class everyday, fully aware of that danger - compared to their courage - I'd say Boko Haram is a bunch of little girls. But, you know what? You don't deserve that compliment.

• I'm very clumsy, so there's been a lot of times I've tripped in front of girls I'm in love with, or spilled food all over myself. My friends and I were the class clowns in high school, so one day we were showing off at our seats and I fell off my chair! I had to get stitches, and I had a bloody lip. I was trying so hard to be a cool class clown!

• No shame in saying that I felt a loneliness drifting through me. Funny how it was, everyone perched in their own little world with the deep need to talk, each person with their own tale, beginning in some strange middle point, then trying so hard to tell it all, to have it all make sense, logical and final.

• Hay un escritor para ti", dijo. "Lo sabe todo y al mismo tiempo no sabe nada". [Fue mi primer indicio de que era escritor. Y aunque me gustan los escritores -porque si le preguntas algo a un escritor sueles obtener una respuesta-, lo menospreció a mis ojos. Los escritores no son exactamente personas. O, si son buenos, son un montón de gente esforzándose por ser una persona. Es como los actores, que intentan tan patéticamente no mirarse en los espejos. Que se inclinan hacia atrás tratando sólo de ver sus caras en los candelabros reflectantes.

  F. Scott Fitzgerald
