"I don’t think that the school system understands that we stay up for hours at night just trying to finish every last piece of homework due the next day. I don’t think they understand that some of us have emotional sicknesses and can’t bear to stand in front of a class and give a report or that some of us are so focused on perfection, we pop pills and skip sleep to study and get a good grade, but in the end we fail and feel worse about ourselves. They don’t understand that we are only human and can break from all the insanity." — Vande Kieft (via quotesanddmusic)
"Life leaves scars. Sometimes you don’t see them until later. Sometimes you don’t know where they’ve come from. Sometimes they fade before your eyes. But the world leaves its mark on us." — Karina Halle, The Pact (via wordsnquotes)
