"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."<br /> — Marilyn Monroe

&ldquo;And once the storm is over, you won&rsquo;t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won&rsquo;t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won&rsquo;t be the same person who walked in. That&rsquo;s what this storm&rsquo;s all about.&rdquo; <br /> ― Haruki Murakami

Favorite Quote:
&quot;Soon madness has worn you down. It&rsquo;s easier to do what it says than argue. In this way, it takes over your mind. You no longer know where it ends and you begin. You believe anything it says. You do what it tells you, no matter how extreme or absurd. If it says you&rsquo;re worthless, you agree. You plead for it to stop. You promise to behave. You are on your knees before it, and it laughs.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marya Hornbacher
