“One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.”

“Boxing is about being hit rather more than it is about hitting, just as it is about feeling pain, if not devastating psychological paralysis, more than it is about winning.”

“It is no surprise to me that hardly anyone tells the truth about how they feel. The smart ones keep themselves to themselves for good reason. Why would you want to tell anyone anything that's dear to you? Even when you like them and want nothing more than to be closer than close to them? It's so painful to be next to someone you feel strongly about and know you can't say the things you want to.”

“Still, being able to feel pain was good, he thought. It's when you can't even feel pain anymore that you're in real trouble.”

“The one good thing about being kind of shy is that nobody bugs you when you want to be left alone.”

“There is nothing that can take the pain away. But eventually you will find a way to live with it. There will be nightmares. And every day when you wake up, it will be the first thing you think about. Until one day, it will be the second thing.”

“Pain's not bad. It's good. It teaches you things. Like when you put your hand in fire: Ow! You know not to do that again.”

“"Business is about to pick up here!" (usually said when someone music/pyro hits)”

“When something is real or true, it will feel stable and solid, even if you don’t feel “good” about it.”

“When someone stabs you it's not your fault that you feel pain.”
