I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through.
Looking into their eyes I see them running too.

We don't exist unless there is someone who can see us existing, what we say has no meaning until someone can understand, while to be surrounded by friends is constantly to have our identity confirmed; their knowledge and care for us have the power to pull us from our numbness. In small comments, many of them teasing, they reveal they know our foibles and except them and so, in turn, accept that we have a place in the world.

 

Alain de Botton

 

Every now and then I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by.
Turn around
Every now and then I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes.
Turn around bright eyes.
Every now and then I fall apart.

 

Jim Steinman

 

You remember me. I’m Gracie Allen. I’m the candidate who forgot to take off her hat before she threw it in the ring.
Furthermore, I’m the only candidate who got the idea of running myself. All the others had to have somebody else think it up for them, or anyway they say the only reason they’re running is because their many friends kept after them and after them until they finally gave in.

 

Gracie Allen

 

A turn, a screw, a pull, a twist, the drug that makes you prettiest.

 

Amanda Palmer

 

But I will turn my eyes from you
      As women turn to put away
The jewels they have worn at night
     And cannot wear in sober day.

 

Sara Teasdale
