#Cosmetics Quotes

“You have to compete in life because if you don't have no competition - no competition, no spirit, you know, you'll fall under the slightest struggle...”
“So often we try to make other people feel better by minimizing their pain, by telling them that it will get better (which it will) or that there are worse things in the world (which there are). But that's not what I actually needed. What I actually needed was for someone to tell me that it hurt because it mattered. I have found this very useful to think about over the years, and I find that it is a lot easier and more bearable to be sad when you aren't constantly berating yourself for being sad.”
“I don't think I could stay interested for a couple of months in a character of mean motivation.”
“Some newspapers have a hands-off policy on favored politicians. But it's generally very small newspapers or local TV stations.”
“If we do not understand our sin, we will not understand the kind of savior we need.”
“But really important, perhaps most important is the craft; how you make your record, the creation of these sonic worlds you want your listener to hear.”
“The process of rewriting is enjoyable, because you're not in that existential panic when you don't have a novel at all.”
“I have become a collapsing star, pulling everything around it, even the light, into an ever-expanding void. Once I lose all ability to communicate with the world outside myself, nothing will be left but what I remember. My memories will be like a sandbar, cut off from the shore by the incoming tide. In time they will become submerged, inaccessible to me. The prospect terrified me. For what is a person without memories? A ghost, trapped between worlds, without an identity, with no future, no past.”
