21 " There's nothing like an orgasm to make a person think--and more often than not, to think too much. "
― Doug Cooper , Outside In
22 " Word has traveled quickly that just because you're on island doesn't mean you have to be stranded---as long as you have cash. "
23 " Rationalization is foreplay with one's conscience. "
24 " All that remains is to forge the #commitment. Regardless of how right everything feels, words never last. "
25 " I have nowhere to go and no place I’m supposed to be. Am I lost or completely free? "
26 " Maybe winning isn’t everything. One just needs to hedge the bet and minimize the risk. "
27 " Yet hopefully things are different now, and I'm moving on to something better rather than attempting to suck more out of the same stale situation. "
28 " The world communicates subtly. Most people don't hear or see the signs because they're so wrapped up in their day-to-day lives. "
29 " Strangers don't see through the cracks as easily as people who know you. "
30 " Time doesn't age you; experience does. "
31 " Don't let yourself get bored. Exist to question; question your existence. "
32 " On the island, the recipe for an entertaining evening is drink this, smoke that, snort this, eat that. How do you feel? Well, try this and some of that. "
33 " Time is the only thing that will heal this, and even that will only lessen the grief. There’s nowhere left to run; nowhere left to hide. "

34 " Just remember, there comes a time when the party isn’t a party anymore; it’s your life. "
35 " Now I just accept that we’re born each day and we die each night. In between we live our lives. "
36 " Identity cannot be found or fabricated but emerges from within when one has the courage to let go. "
37 " True conversation is its own experience, and experience, not words, is the thing that brings people closer. "
38 " TIME PASSES SWIFTLY WHEN A PERSON DOESN’T THINK ABOUT ANYTHING. Or maybe it’s that when a person looks back, he doesn’t recall anything significant to mark the passing time, so he remembers it as one complete piece of his life. "
39 " I’m learning quickly, once you quit one thing, it gets easier and easier just to leave situations rather than deal with shit. If I really cared, I probably would’ve stayed and at least tried for a fresh start "
40 " Satisfaction is a powerful sleep aid, and after the day I had yesterday, how could I not be content? Uncertainty has returned to my life, and I welcome the possibilities. "
