“The same teen who can't legally operate a four-wheeler, or [ATV]...in a farm lane workplace environment can operate a jacked-up F-250 pickup on a crowded urban expressway. By denying these [farm work] opportunities to bring value to their own lives and the community around them, we've relegated our young adults to teenage foolishness. Then as a culture we walk around shaking our heads in bewilderment at these young people with retarded maturity. Never in life do people have as much energy as in their teens, and to criminalize leveraging it is certainly one of our nation's greatest resource blunders.”

“Ben, if you get pee in my brand-new car, I am going to cut your balls off."
Still peeing, Ben looks over at me smirking. "You´re gonna need a hell of a big knife, bro.”

“He had come to America, haven of peace and liberty, and it, too, was joining the slaughter, fighting for the big capitalists. There was no peace for men, only murder, cruelty, brutality.”

“Why can’t you just be yourself?” Stella asked once.
“Maybe I don’t know who that is,” her daughter shot back. And Stella understood, she did. That was the thrill of youth, the idea that you could be anyone. That was what had captured her in the charm shop, all those years ago. Then adulthood came, your choices solidifying, and you realize that everything you are had been set in motion years before. The rest was aftermath. So she understood why her daughter was searching for a self, and she even blamed herself for it.”

“Adults viewed suicidal ideation as a pathology. But for me it was logic. Weighing the bad against the good, projecting forward to decide if life was worth sticking around for.”

“Our Prophet ﷺ showed KINDNESS while he was treated with hostility,
He showed LOVE and COMPASSION to everyone, even to his enemy.
Sent by the MOST MERCIFUL to the world as a MERCY,
He is the BEST of creation, the most noble man,
Described by his wife as a WALKING QUR’AN.
Follow his SUNNAH as best as you can...”

“Allah is CLOSER to you than your jugular vein,
He knows your DEEPEST thoughts; he feels your pain.
Any problems, RAISE your hands to Allah and complain,
The most compassionate, the one who LOVES you greatly.
Allah is more MERCIFUL than a mother is to her baby,
HOLD on to the QUR’AN and the SUNNAH tightly.
A guiding LIGHT, shining brightly...”

“Casper nie lubi, kiedy podczas terapii grupowej używamy słów: "ciąć się, przypalać, dźgać". Tłumaczy, że nieważne, co ktoś robi czy jak to robi. Możesz chlać, ciąć się, brać metę, wciągać kokę, przypalać się, dźgać, chlastać, wyrywać rzęsy, rżnąć się, aż do krwi, ale zawsze chodzi o to samo: samookaleczenie. Tłumaczy, że kiedy ktoś Cię zranił czy sprawił, że czujesz się zła, bezwartościowa, brudna, zamiast racjonalnie dojść do wniosku, że ten ktoś jest palantem czy psycholem i należałoby go zastrzelić bądź powiesić, trzymać się od niego z daleka, to internalizujesz krzywdę, zaczynasz obwiniać siebie i wymierzać sobie karę.”

“Och tydligen krävdes bara fyra ord för att börja berätta om mammor som dog, pappor som gick sönder och om känslan av att stå ensam och blicka ut på en framtid som borde vara ljus, men som i stället bestod av falnande kol och aska.”

“Cian: Where the fuck?
Gabriel: Family centre, somewhere around the top floor if the view is anything to go by.
Gabriel: The why is less obvious.
Elijah: Seriously? It’s clearly a photoshoot. Her father is an Icon with a penchant for aggressive media campaigns. He will see her partly bonded status as an opportunity.
Gabriel: I said it was less obvious, not that it wasn’t still obvious.
Moses: Stop comparing brain size.
Kilian: Yeah, stop waving your big … brains around.”

“My mother thinks I’ve dyed my hair red
for attention—
How can I explain to her the ways that she is
right
and
wrong.
As of last night,
my hair is the color of a brick
the moment before it goes through
a stained-glass
window.
My hair is the color of a fire engine
driving through a burning building.
My hair is the color of a dart frog:
generations of death adapting
into this exact shade of poison.
It’s called aposematism—
we learned about it in bio.
It’s when an animal advertises
to predators that it is not worth
the attempt to consume.
Bright red and orange,
the colors of pain,
I WILL MAKE YOU SICK
I WILL KILL YOU FROM INSIDE YOUR THROAT
ATTENTION!
I MAY LOOK LIKE PREY
BUT I WILL END
YOUR
LIFE
My mother says I want attention
and maybe she’s right
My mother says I am just making a statement
and maybe she’s right
But in my mind it’s not saying
please—
it’s saying
don’t
and this is how I know men
are not really wolves
because maybe
a wolf
would listen.”
