Quotes
I was born with a disposition for madness, a nature of grotesquerie and a talent for abomination.
I wanted to make sure that I was never without love, never without a witness to my life.
The world is always caught between false righteousness and real sin.
There is no normal. There is just different levels of weird.
The real world is full of the uncanny and the marvelous.
Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.
