“I survived
I speak, I breathe
I'm incomplete
I'm alive, hooray!
You're wrong again, 'cause I feel no love.”

“Someday, my love, you're going to understand just how much I care for you. You're my light, my warmth, my other half. I only feel alive when I'm with you. I love you." Caine”

“I feel more alive when I'm writing than I do at any other time--except maybe when I'm making love.”

“I'm born,
I'm alive,
I breathe,
In a moment or two I realize,
That the sphere upon which I reside
Is asleep on its feet,
Should I go back to sleep?”

“When I'm with you, I feel a kind of calm I've never felt in my life. I'm tangled up in you and you're tangled up in me and it feels right. Like it was meant to be. I love you, Maddie, and I'm sorry it's taken me so long to say it to you again.”

“I want to feel all there is to feel, he thought. Let me feel tired, now, let me feel tired. I mustn't forget, I'm alive, I know I'm alive, I mustn't forget it tonight or tomorrow or the day after that.”

“The only time I feel alive is when I'm painting.”

“I'm beautiful in my way 'cause god makes no mistakes.
I'm on the right track baby,
I was born this way.
Don't hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you're set.
I'm on the right track baby, I was born this way.”

“I was wrong. I admit it. I believed that there were things which still mattered just because they had mattered once. But I was wrong. Nothing matters but breath, breathing, to know and to be alive.”

“Love is a feeling,
Give it when I want it,
'Cause I'm on fire,
Quench my desire,
Love is a woman,
I don't want to give in,
Give in to me, give in to me.”
