"Kid, get off the ground. Spit your blood and bare your teeth; go down a savage, go down fighting."

"If I cannot move Heaven, I will raise Hell."

"Shed every skin that doesn't fit, even if they call you cold-blooded. And if they try to stop your growth? Unhinge your jaw. Go for the throat."

"Just be yourself. Let people see the real, imperfect, flawed, quirky, weird, beautiful, and magical person that you are."
