Favorite Quote:
&ldquo;Right now, there are people all over the world who are just like you. They&rsquo;re lonely. They&rsquo;re missing somebody. They&rsquo;re in love with someone they probably shouldn&rsquo;t be in love with. They have secrets you wouldn&rsquo;t believe. They wish and they dream and they hope, and they look out the window whenever they&rsquo;re in the car or on a bus or a train and they watch the people on the streets and wonder what they&rsquo;ve been through. They wonder if there are people like them. They&rsquo;re like you, and you could tell them everything and they would understand. <br /> And right now, they&rsquo;re sitting here reading these words, and I&rsquo;m writing this for you so you don&rsquo;t feel alone anymore.&rdquo;

&quot;What, do you really think I was<br /> strong enough to handle it?<br /> If you did, then sweetie, you<br /> don&#039;t know me at all.<br /> These &quot;smiles&quot; are fake.<br /> Just another lie people bought.<br /> You will never know the disaster<br /> that&#039;s behind them.&quot; -Anonymous

&quot;It&#039;s a saying they have, that a man has a false heart in his mouth for the world to see, another in his breast to show to his special friends and his family, and the real one, the true one, the secret one, which is never known to anyone except to himself alone, hidden only God knows where.&quot;<br /> -James Clavell, &quot;Shogun&quot;
