“Lord, please restore to us the comfort of merit and demerit. Show us that there is at least something we can do. Tell us that at the end of the day there will at least be one redeeming card of our very own.

Give us something to do, anything; but spare us the indignity of this indiscriminate acceptance.”

“People say to the mentally ill, â€˜You know so many people think the world of you.â€™ But when they donâ€™t like themselves they donâ€™t notice anything. They donâ€™t care about what people think of them. When you hate yourself, whatever people say it doesnâ€™t make sense. â€˜Why do they like me? Why do they care about me?â€™ Because you donâ€™t care about yourself at all.”
