"When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life."

-John Lennon

"If you are always trying to be NORMAL, you will never be as AMAZING as you can be."

-Maya Angelou

I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.

-Edgar Allan Poe

Do or die, you’ll never make me because the world will never take my heart. Go and try, you’ll never break me. We want it all, we wanna play this part. I won’t explain or say I’m sorry. I’m unashamed, I’m gonna show my scar. Give a cheer for all the broken. Listen here, because it’s who we are. I’m just a man, I’m not a hero. Just a boy, who had to sing this song. I’m just a man, I’m not a hero. I don’t care!

-My Chemical Romance, Welcome To The Black Parade

We are the damned, the cursed and the broken- there’s so much more inside us. We are the lost, the sick and unspoken- there’s so much more inside us.

"It's funny how when I'm loud, people tell me to be quiet, but when I'm quiet, people ask me what's wrong with me."
