41 " Dear precious Diary, I am baptizing you with my tears. I know we have to leave and that one day I will even have to leave my father and mother’s home and go into a home of my own. But ever I will take you with me. "
― Beatrice Sparks , Go Ask Alice
42 " Her father is a doctor and away from home most of the time just like Dad, and her mother nags a lot but then I guess all mothers do. If they didn’t I’d hate to see what homes and yards and even the world would look like. Oh, I do hope I won’t have to be a nagging mother, but I guess I’ll have to be, else I don’t see how anything will ever be accomplished. "
43 " felt great, free, abandoned, a different, improved, perfected specimen of a different, improved, perfected species. It was wild! It was beautiful! It really was. "
44 " Une grosse vieille dame à côté de moi se retenait à la courroie et sa robe sans manches laissait voir un incroyable nid d'oiseau sous son bras. C'est la chose la plus nauséabonde que j'aie jamais vue. J'espère que Tim ne l'a pas vue, il en serait devenu pédéraste. "
45 " Adolescenti prolaze teško razdoblje. Odrasli se prema njima ponašaju kao prema djeci, ali očekuju da se oni ponašaju kao odrasli. Zapovijedaju im kao da su male životinje, a onda očekuju da reagiraju kao zrele, uvjek racionalne i samopouzdane osobe. Teško je to vrijeme izgubljenosti i traženja "
46 " I feel grown-up. I am no longer in the category with the children, I am one of the adults! And I love it! They have accepted me as an individual, as a personality, as an entity. I belong! I am important! I am somebody! "
47 " Depressed? No one in the world but a doper could know the true opposite of depressed. "
48 " This life is beautiful. It’s so goddamned beautiful I can hardly stand it. And I’m a glorious part of it! Everybody else is just taking up space. Goddamned stupid people. I’d like to shove life down all their throats and then maybe they’d understand what it’s all about. "
49 " ...I really am only one infinitely small part of an aching humanity. It's a good thing most people bleed on the inside or this would be a gory, blood-smeared earth. "
50 " Why is life so difficult? Why can’t we be just ourselves and have everyone accept us the way we are? "
51 " ¿Cómo puedo sentirme tan miserable, turbada, humillada, apaleada, yhablar todavía, funcionar, sonreír y, concentrarme? "
52 " ¿Por qué será tan difícil la vida? ¿Porqué no podemos ser como somos y que nos acepten como tales? ¿Por qué no puedo ser yo, sencillamente, tal como soy ahora, sin necesidad de concentrarme, de mortificarme sobre mi pasado y sobre mi futuro? "
53 " Incluso con mis amigas no soy realmente yo misma.En parte soy otra; tratando de encajar, de decir cosas apropiadas, de hacerlas cosas requeridas, de estar en el lugar más indicado, de vestir comovisten todos. A veces pienso que cada uno trata de ser la sombra de otro;compramos los mismos discos y hacemos como los demás, aunque no nosguste. Los muchachos son como robots, piezas en línea para el montaje, yyo no quiero ser un robot. "
54 " Tengo este necio temor: el temor de ser vieja sin haber sido nunca joven deverdad. "
55 " Sometimes I think we’re all trying to be shadows of each other, trying to buy the same records and everything even if we don’t like them. Kids are like robots, off an assembly line, and I don’t want to be a robot! "
56 " Querido Diario: Han transcurrido mil años lunares, del tiempo lunar. Todoel mundo ha estado contando historias menos yo. No tengo nada digno quecontar. Todo lo que puedo hacer es dibujar monstruos, órganos internos yodiar. "
57 " I want so much to be someone important, or even just asked out by a boy every once in a while. Maybe the new me will be different. "
58 " Even now I’m not really sure which parts of myself are real and which parts are things I’ve gotten from books. "
59 " I wouldn't intentionally hurt anyone in this world. I wouldn't hurt them physically or emotionally, how then can people so consistently do it to me? "
60 " Even now I'm not really sure which parts of myself are real and which parts are things I've gotten from books. "
