  • So now I'm thinking about it. I'm imagining sitting down with my parents and actually saying, "I'm gay." And you know what? It makes me a little mad. I mean, straight guys don't have to sit their parents down and tell them they like girls.

  • I'm tired of people thinking they're doing me favours.

    Tired   Thinking   People  
  • I knew people were talking, but I wasn't listening. I wasn't interested in anything anyone had to say.

    Michael Thomas Ford (2011). “Suicide Notes”, p.24, Harper Collins
  • That sounds so weird: "kill yourself." It makes it sound like you tried to murder someone, only that someone is you. But killing someone is wrong, and I don't think suicide is. It's my life, right? I should be able to end it if I want to. I don't think it's a sin.

  • Why is it that you have to warn people about who you are?

  • Personally, I think they killed the bear because they were afraid of it. That s what people do, kill the things they re afraid of.

    Thinking   People   Bears  
  • That's what people do. Kill the things they're afraid of.

    People  
  • When people hurt us, the best thing to do isn’t to ask why they did it but to remind ourselves that it wasn’t our fault.

    Hurt   People   Faults  
  • I know all about dreams that make you want to scream.

    Dream   Want   Scream  
  • It will go away... The stuff in your head. Little by little.

  • Let me tell something, seeing your name and psychiatric ward on the same piece of paper isn't the best way to start your day.

    Names   Pieces   Paper  
    Michael Thomas Ford (2011). “Suicide Notes”, p.8, Harper Collins
  • I'm still kind of a mess. But I think we all are. No one's got it all together. I don't think you ever do get it totally together. Probably if you did manage to do it you'd spontaneously combust. I think that's a law of nature. If you ever manage to become perfect, you have to die instantly before you ruin things for everyone else.

    Thinking   Law   Perfect  
  • Here’s what I think. One, people should figure out that if they go around bothering bears, chances are they’re going to end up bear snacks. Second, people suck.

  • Anyone can be crazy. That's usually just because there's something screwed up in your wiring, you know? But suicide is a whole different thing. I mean, how much do you have to hate yourself to want to just wipe yourself out?

    Suicide   Hate   Crazy  
  • And it’s not like I’ve never jacked off. I’m fifteen years old. Of course I do it. Any guy who says he doesn’t is lying. That would be like having the coolest video game ever and never playing it. No one’s that stupid.

    Lying   Stupid   Years  
  • It's like whoever sits up ther in Heaven had this big bag of really crappy stuff, and once or twice a day she or he reaches in and sprinkles a little bit of it over the world and it makes everything go crazy, like fairy dust that's past its expiration date.

    Crazy   Past   Dust  
  • Like I said, some people think it’s weird that my best friend is a girl. Sometimes I think it’s weird, too. Mostly people assume that we’re boyfriend and girlfriend, which I guess we could be. But that just seems too teen-movie, if you know what I mean. A boy and girl are best friends, neither of them dates anyone else, and then one night they look at each other and—bang—they realize they’ve been in love with each other the whole time. Everyone’s happy and they go to the big dance together.

    Girl   Mean   Boys  
  • And anyway, the truth isn't all that great. I mean, what's the truth? Planes falling out of the sky. Buses blowing up and ripping little kids into millions of pieces. Twelve-year-olds raping people and then shooting them in the head so they can't tell. I can't watch the news anymore or look at the papers. It's like whoever sits up there in Heaven has this big bag of really crappy stuff, and once or twice a day she or he reaches in and sprinkles a little bit of it over the world and makes everything crazy, like fairy dust that's past its expiration date.

    Crazy   Fall   Mean  
  • I’ve been thinking about that ever since. Am I lucky? Am I lucky that I didn’t die? Am I lucky that, compared to the other kids here, my life doesn’t seem so bad? Maybe I am, but I have to say, I don’t feel lucky. For one thing, I’m stuck in this pit. And just because your life isn’t as awful as someone else’s, that doesn’t mean it doesn’t suck. You can’t compare how you feel to the way other people feel. It just doesn’t work. What might look like the perfect life—or even an okay life—to you might not be so okay for the person living it.

    Mean   Kids   Thinking  
  • I believe that God—if he exists at all—is what we want him to be. The true God is unknowable, and so we dress him up in costumes that make him visible to us. Then we come up with a lot of very silly rules that we attribute to him and tell everyone if they don't follow those rules, they can't be part of the gang.

    Believe   Silly   Dresses  
    Michael Thomas Ford (2005). “Looking For It”, p.80, Kensington Publishing Corp.
  • Sometimes I think there’s someone up there just sitting around thinking of ways to make me look like a complete moron. Seriously, I bet there’s an angel—or, more likely, a demon—assigned just to me. And every day it gets up and asks itself what it can do to ruin my life. Well, today it got an A plus.

    Angel   Thinking   Looks  
  • It's a really crappy feeling to realize that your entire outook on your life can be controlled by some little pill that looks like a Pez, and that some weird combination of drugs can make your brain think it's on a holiday somewhere really sweet when you're standing naked in the middle of the school cafeteria while everyone takes pictures of you. Metaphorically. Or whatever.

    Sweet   School   Holiday  
  • That sounds weird: "kill yourself." It makes it sound like you tried to murder someone, only that someone is you.

    Sound   Murder   Like You  
  • Once you realise there's nothing to be afraid of when you die, there's nothing else to worry about.

    Worry   Realising   Dies  
  • One time Allie and I skipped school and went to see this foreign film called Los Diablos, where these villagers found a glowing blue ball and peeled pieces off of it to see what was inside. Only the ball was really radioactive, and they all died from the poison. I think that’s what happens when you look too deep inside for the truth. The poison comes out, and you die, even though you have beautiful glowing pieces of blue truth in your fingers.

  • If you ever manage to become perfect, you have to die instantly before you ruin things for everyone else.

  • I keep feeling like everyone wants me to apologize for something.

  • No one in France cares if you tried to kill yourself. In fact, I think they like you better because you're all tragic.

    Thinking   Care   France  
  • Now I just have these reddish scars there. I guess I always will, although Goody says they’ll fade over time. I don’t know if I want them to fade. That probably sounds totally freaky, but part of me doesn’t want to forget what it felt like, even though it hurt. If I forget about the pain, I might also forget that it was a really stupid idea to do it in the first place.

    Hurt   Pain   Stupid  
  • How come someone always saves the people who try to kill themselves and then makes them tell everyone how sorry they are for ruining their evening? I keep feeling like everyone wants me to apologize for something. but I'm not going to. I don't have anything to apologize for. They're the ones who screwed everything up. Not me. I didn't ask to be saved.

    Sorry   People   Feelings
