&quot;I&#039;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&#039;t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don&#039;t deserve me at my best.&quot; <br /> - Marilyn Monroe

&quot;As you get closer to the light, the greater your shadow becomes.&quot;<br /> &quot;Never fear shadows. They simply mean there&#039;s a light shining somewhere nearby.&quot;<br /> &quot;The best way to become boring is to say everything.&quot;<br /> &quot;Forget arrogance, just ask and recieve&quot;
