All the bruises, all the wounds, all the bumps on the head, all the scars, just so I can take that and I can write all these things, and sometimes I say "God, I don't want to be in this roller coaster anymore."

You are in the same car, strapped down side by side and you can never, ever get off.

No one except for the one strapped down beside you will ever understand the particular thrills and terrors of your ride.”
