I've always been interested in writing from the perspective of an outsider.

In my mind I am eloquent; I can climb intricate scaffolds of words to reach the highest cathedral ceilings and paint my thoughts. But when I open my mouth, everything collapses.

I want to change my punctuation. I long for exclamation marks, but I'm drowning in ellipses.

I would like my life to be a movie so I could cut to a montage.

I want a new past,new memories, a new first handshake with love. I want to start over in every possible way.

My friend "M" says the irony of being a zombie is that everything is funny, but you can't smile, because your lips have rotted off.

...wanting change is step one, but step two is taking it.

My favorite songs change every year.

You should always be taking pictures, if not with a camera then with your mind. Memories you capture on purpose are always more vivid than the ones you pick up by accident.

The past is made out of facts...I guess the future is just hope.

I notice faint scars on her wrists and forearms, thin lines too symmetrical to be accidents.

You need to do research, to approach the study of the issue from all sides

Be a goal-setter, a go-getter, all the while, moving,  in humility and kindness.

Whatever the hell I am, I am Me.

When you're already going through a rough patch of life

Life comes in stages. We all have different ages. We do what we do because of our ages. Knowingly or unknowingly, we act because of where we have reached in life.

Mitt Romney has a fund-raiser. He's going to get in the ring and fight Evander Holyfield. This is the dumbest thing Republicans have done since they wrote that open letter to Iran.

I am a maker of useful things.

All poetry like every work of art proceeds from a swift vision of things.

Love should be a vehicle allowed to travel without limitations.

Mike Laga will make you forget about every power hitter that ever lived.
