Bret Easton Ellis
I am gripped by an existential panic.
Bret Easton Ellis
No one is drawn to writing about being happy or feelings of joy.
Bret Easton Ellis
I don't want to care. If I care about things, it'll just be worse, it'll just be another thing to worry about. It's less painful if I don't care.
Bret Easton Ellis
My pain is constant and sharp...this confession has meant nothing
Bret Easton Ellis
