“Most men judge your importance in their lives by how much you can hurt them.”

“You can't judge who you love the most by how long you love them.”

“Have you felt it too? Have you seen how your best friends love everything about you- except the things that count? And your most important is nothing to them; nothing, not even a sound they can recognize.”

“The difference between friendship and love is how much you can hurt each other.”

“It was maddening how your best friend could twist the knobs inside of you so much that it hurt.”

“Most important, you learn never to trust a man, even if he seems honest and sincere. You learn how men deceive themselves and how impossible it is to help them without injuring yourself.”

“Of all the questions we can ask ourselves the most important is: how is one best to live?”

“How much better it is to see men live exactly than to hear them argue with subtlety!”

“I don't believe in guilt, I believe in living on impulse as long as you never intentionally hurt another person, and don't judge people in your life. I think you should live completely free”

“I was brought up to believe that cricket is the most important activity in men's lives, the most important thread in the fabric of the cosmos.”
