&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

&ldquo;This story never really had a point. It&rsquo;s just a lull - a skip in the record. We are addresses in ghost towns. We are old wishes that never came true. We are hand grenades (and every word you say pulls the pin). We are all gods, we are all monsters.&rdquo; <br /> ― Pete Wentz, The Boy With The Thorn In His Side
