and while i'm on a quoting spree, here's another:

"Life is a random lottery of meaningless tragedies and a series of near escapes.
So, I sit here and I smoke my camel straits." - Ethan Hawke from Reality Bites

'cept of course i don't smoke camel straits, i just sit and stone really and i figured out that's what's getting me dreary and unenthusiastic, more like, lazy perhaps, holliday underdose, and moaning about it. and life is not a random lottery of meaningless tragedies, mine has more commonplace drama than tragedy, and perhaps the only tragedy currently is that, i sit around and do nothing too much. that's why i end up with my series of near escapes.

tsk.
