“There was no salve for the space he left. If there had been—if science had developed an ointment for heartache or a pill for the lovelorn—I wouldn’t have used it. I wanted pain. I wanted cataclysmic anguish.”
—Claire Vaye Watkins, Battleborn

“Like a sleeve caught in some implacable and uncomprehending machine, his need to be understood had become lodged in her blissful but dangerously indifferent body. He would be dragged through a crushing obsession and spat out the other end without her pulse flickering or her thoughts wandering from their chosen paths.”
—Edward St. Aubyn, Bad News
“You’re only young once, they say, but doesn’t it go on for a long time? More years than you can bear.”

“Sometimes it seems like we’re all living in some kind of prison. And the crime is how much we hate ourselves. It’s good to get really dressed up once in a while. And admit the truth: that when you really look closely? People are so strange and so complicated that they’re actually… beautiful. Possibly even me.”
Another great and old show. “My so-called life” is, without doubts, the best teen-drama ever and also the most boring (real life is boring). Angela Chase is one of us and we all had a Jordan Catalano back in the day.
