- What will you do there? - Nothing. - Nothing? - Yeah, but, nothing somewhere else. Nice nothing.

I was just thinking… It wasn’t a chemical imbalance, and it wasn’t drugs and alcohol. I think—It was much more that I had lived an incredibly American life. This idea that if I could just achieve X and Y and Z, that everything would be okay. There’s a thing in the book about how when somebody leaps from a burning skyscraper, it’s not that they’re not afraid of falling anymore. It’s that the alternative is so awful. And so then you’re invited to consider what could be so awful… that leaping to your death would seem like an escape from it. I don’t know if you have any experience with this kind of thing. But it’s worse than any kind of physical injury. It may be in the old days what was known as a spiritual crisis—feeling as though every axiom in your life turned out to be false… and there was actually nothing. And that you were nothing. And that it’s all a delusion and you’re so much better than everybody… 'cause you can see how this is just a delusion, and you’re so much worse because you can’t fucking function. It’s really horrible.

However cruel and inhuman you are, there must be some truth in you. Your truth.

Are you scared? If you are, you don't understand anything. I can't hurt you. You are my film.

You're looking at me as if to tell me that I need you to fill me up, as if I'm an empty space. Well, I love you too but what makes me go on is to know he'll return and that I'll make him suffer and I'll hurt him and I'm betraying him, but... this brings me small rewards. Yet I can't exist by myself because I'm afraid of myself, because I'm the maker of my own evil.
