If you're the nice guy, act like the nice guy.

I have had a rather lovely day today, despite having to cram in so much english revision. Went with Beth for a rather short walk in which we ended up on a bench eating doritoes and strawberries which is a splendid way to spend any day. At this rate I am certainly not going to fit into my prom dress which I am supposedly dieting for as we speak. Ok, I will diet nearer the time! Curse my obsession with food.



"How do you write about feathers? The magic of dreamcatchers? The art of dreaming? How do you write about nightmares that haunt you? Ghosts from your past? Clouds in the sky? The swirls of smoke from a cigarette? The bloog that gushes through you? Your heart beating? I want to tell you about my demons. The thoughts that lurk in the back of my mind. The things I see in the shadows. My innermost wishes. My vices, my faults. Everything that makes me who I am."



"I've spent my whole life waiting for something else to start. Now I realise that this is all there is and I'm going to try to live my life like that."



"A novel is like a dream in which everyone is you. They're all parts of yourself."



"A photo says you were happy and I wanted to catch that. A photo says you were so important to me that I put down everything else to watch."

"People think that dreams aren't real because they aren't made of matter, of particles. Dreams are real. But they're made of viewpoints, of images, of memories and puns and lost hopes..."



"A perfectly healthy sentence, it is true, is extremely rare. For the most part we miss the hue and the fragrance of the thought; as if we could be satisfied with the dews of the morning or the evening without their colours or the heavens without their azure."



"We know so very little about this strange planet we live on. The haunted world where answers lead only to more mystery."



"We travel for romance, we travel for architecture and we travel to be lost."



"A novel can leave me indifferent, yet one single word, if used correctly can make me die. I take things which are so little and make them so big."



"I believe in kindness. Also in michief. Also in singing, especially when singing is not necessarily prescribed."



"Do you believe you're missing out? That everything good is happening somewhere else? With nobody in your bed, the night is hard to get through?"



"I am no longer afraid of becoming lost, because the journey back always reveals something new and that is ultimately good for the soul."
