“You know when you're sitting on a chair and you lean back so you're just on two legs and you lean too far so you almost fall over but at the last second you catch yourself? I feel like that all the time…”

“Almost all the time, you tell yourself you're loving somebody when you're just using them.
This only looks like love.”

“When you sit right down in the middle of yourself you're gonna wanna have a comfortable chair.”

“You're frightened, and you're frightening, and you're 'not at all like yourself but you will be soon,' but you know you won't.”

“In my early 20s, I didn't know who I was or what I wanted. And if you're just getting to know yourself while you're in a serious relationship—well, it's almost like when you go through clothing phases where it's all Banana Republic all the time, and then it's something else. It's like you're trying on different personalities to see what fits, but there is that real you in there somewhere.”

“Mo: Uh… sorry. I was just wondering why you're… you know… using that if normally you just use crutches.

“So when a dragon is directly over you, well, even if you're me and you're kind of used to it, your medulla oblongata is still telling you 'the sky is falling, you're about to die, run like hell.”

“For quite a while I did feel like my brain wasn't being used at all. Obviously, when you're just modelling, you do feel a bit almost brain-dead, where you need something to stimulate you mentally and you're not getting it.”
