"Hast du Dich je so gefühlt? Dass Du tausend Jahre lang schlafen willst. Oder gar nicht mehr existieren willst. Oder Dir einfach nicht bewusst sein willst, dass du existierst..."

"I think it was the first time in my life I ever felt like I looked “good”. Do you know what I mean? That nice feeling when you look in the mirror, and your hair’s right for the first time in your life? I don’t think we should base so much on weight, muscles, and a good hair day, but when it happens, it’s nice. It really is."

"Do you always think this much, Charlie?"
"Is that bad?" I just wanted someone to tell me the truth.
"Not necessarily. It's just that sometimes people use thought to not participate in life."
"Is that bad?"
"Yes."

"I think that if I ever have kids, and they are upset, I won't tell them that people are starving in China or anything like that because it wouldn't change the fact that they were upset. And even if somebody else has it much worse, that doesn't really change the fact that you have what you have."

"I would die for you. But I won't live for you."

"So, this is my life. And I want you to know that I am both happy and sad and I'm still trying to figure out how that could be."
