«I start to feel like I can?t maintain the facade any longer, that I may just start to show through. And I wish I knew what was wrong. Maybe something about how stupid my whole life is. I don?t know. Why does the rest of the world put up with the hypocrisy, the need to put a happy face on sorrow, the need to keep on keeping on?... I don?t know the answer, I know only that I can?t. I don't want any more vicissitudes, I don't want any more of this try, try again stuff. I just want out. I?ve had it. I am so tired. I am twenty and I am already exhausted.»
