People's affection hurts me but it's a beautiful pain.

Every pleasure's got an edge of pain, pay your ticket and don't complain.

Unique and different is the new generation of beautiful... You dont have to be like everybody else. In fact I don't think you should.

People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. It's all in how you carry it.

You feel your strength in the experience of pain.

People fear death even more than pain. It's strange that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death. At the point of death, the pain is over. Yeah, I guess it is a friend.
