Quote by Shaun Hick

“A night of crying has silenced me. This morning it seems the whole world is against me. I've never before felt so barren, so empty. I've never before thought the daylight to be ... my enemy. My enemy.”

See, when I’m up I don’t kill myself because, holy shit, there’s so much left to do.

The sadness is the house fire or the broken shoulder: I’d still be me without it but I’d be so boring.”
