Somebody need me too much, somebody know me too well
Somebody pull me up short and put me through hell
John Barrowman - Being Alive
Copyright: Dylan Ricci
"I have been a hundred times upon the point of killing myself, but still I was fond of life. This ridiculous weakness is, perhaps, one of the dangerous principles implanted in our nature. For what can be more absurd than to persist in carrying a burden of which we wish to be eased? to detest, and yet to strive to preserve our existence? In a word, to caress the serpent that devours us, and hug him close to our bosoms till he has gnawed into our hearts?"
Voltaire - Candide
