Susanna Kaysen Quotes
Twenty Aspirin, A Little Slit Alongside The Veins Of The Arm, Maybe Even A Bad Half Hour Standing On A Roof: We've All Had Those. And Somewhat More Dangerous Things, Like Putting A Gun In Your Mouth. But You Put It There, You Taste It, It's Cold And Greasy, Your Finger Is On The Trigger, And You Find That A Whole World Lies Between This Moment And The Moment You've Been Planning, When You'll Pull The Trigger. That World Defeats You. You Put The Gun Back In The Drawer. You'll Have To Find Another Way.
