I like to form my own personal opinion on things before trying them. That's why most critics suck; they always hate things that should be loved and love what they're meant to hate.”

just act smart to hide my emotional scars. I hide behind the veil of pseudo-intellectualism to protect my fragile ego.”

would burn like a blaze. They also became swollen, and the slightest movement would cause immense agony. We put
hydrogen peroxide on it so they wouldn’t get infected. Do I regret doing it? Sort of... The truth is, no matter how hard
I punch something, it will never get rid of the biggest pain of my life.”
Jeffrey Calhoun, The October Amaryllis

with anything if you have enough dough. That’s one thing I like about the Bible; it talks about how destructive greed is. People treat mammon as their God, you know? If I ever won the lottery, I’d give up all my
money and go to live in the wild like that Chris McCandless guy, except I’d be smart about it and survive. I’d also buy a sasquatch suit just to mess with cryptologists; some moron would record me and claim
that I was “proof” of bigfoot or some nonsense. People disappoint me so much sometimes…”
Jeffrey Calhoun, The October Amaryllis
“It’s a shame, really; all the exciting things happen when you’re not there to witness them. It’s almost as if life is purposefully trying to annoy you in that way.”
Jeffrey Calhoun, The October Amaryllis
“It’s a shame really, I mean, if you’re only doing something for the money and all, it’s like you don’t even really care about what you’re doing. So many people
only do good things because they get paid for it.”
