Loving the ideal more than the reality is the cause of all the misery the human species creates for itself.

Folly enlarges men's desires while it lessens their capacities.
I was like a cat always climbing the wrong tree.
If I go to someone's house and I can see that they only want to meet me because of my husband, we know it's the wrong house.
People of this world are deluded. They're always longing for something - always, in a word, seeking.
I came up with the album name 'Please Don't Be Dead' because I felt like we'd lost our way as a society - and I know what happens when you chase the wrong things. It's the story of my life.
In diving to the bottom of pleasure we bring up more gravel than pearls.
