1 " If a writer falls in love with you, you can never die. "
― Mik Everett
2 " Funny to think that every day you have ever lived is a yesterday, and you will never live one single tomorrow. But then again, every day is a today when you’re living it. "
― Mik Everett , Turtle: The American Contrition of Franz Ferdinand
3 " If I wasn't idealistic, there wouldn't be anything worth fighting for. "
4 " But only people you care about can hurt you. That doesn't mean I love her. Hate is not the opposite of love; not caring is. And as long as I hate her, I still care about her, and she has the power to hurt me. To make me hate myself. "
5 " There's a fine line between self-preservation and mummification. "
6 " This is how I want to be remembered: In spite of everything, she really tried to be nice and believed other people did too. You can go ahead and put that on my gravestone. "
7 " That's what I call 'accuracy tempered by brevity.' Like calling John my husband. Or Lyric my step-son. It's easier than explaining we've been together for so long that 'boyfriend' seems too informal, and that we filed taxes together so we're pretty much common-law anyway. We're a family and I don't like to have to qualify it with various attributes. Sam "
