I wanted to know what it was like to be a drug addict, and have an eating disorder, and have a loved one die, and fall in love. I saw my friends going through these things, I saw the world going through these things, and I needed to understand them. I needed to make sense of them. Books didn’t make me wallow in darkness, darkness made me wallow in books, and it was books that showed me there is light at the end of the tunnel.

A los mortales os hace falta compañía porque tenéis tristeza, deseos y un tiempo limitado de vida.

Los mortales se olvidan de advertir que el tiempo pasa.

Si quieres que tus deseos duren, tienes que pedir algo que te haga feliz y no la felicidad.

Books didn’t make me wallow in darkness, darkness made me wallow in books.
