• I hate slick and pretty things. I prefer mistakes and accidents. Which is why I like things like cuts and bruises - they're like little flowers.

But when you see the same thing in nature, and you don't know what it is, it can be very beautiful.

Never. How can I feel pain? There is no place for it.

So, I stayed quiet. “Jason, please escort your friend to the door.
