"As your nerves bend and twist to accommodate yet unexperienced force, new thought and mutant hallucination come into light. I heard about this nervous breakdown that’s been going around. Read a letter about how you broke down in the middle of nowhere, which is everywhere when you’re broken down. Open your eyes. Your tears cut a trail. Your scars build a ladder that takes you to a place that you could not have gotten to any other way. Take a look around, remember every second, every breath, every choked scream. Scar tissue is stronger than regular tissue. Realize the strength. Move on."

— Henry Rollins
