More quotes by Michael Thomas Ford
I believe that God—if he exists at all—is what we want him to be. The true God is unknowable, and so we dress him up in costumes that make him visible to us. Then we come up with a lot of very silly rules that we attribute to him and tell everyone if they don't follow those rules, they can't be part of the gang.

Michael Thomas Ford
And it’s not like I’ve never jacked off. I’m fifteen years old. Of course I do it. Any guy who says he doesn’t is lying. That would be like having the coolest video game ever and never playing it. No one’s that stupid.
Michael Thomas Ford
When people hurt us, the best thing to do isn’t to ask why they did it but to remind ourselves that it wasn’t our fault.
Michael Thomas Ford
I knew people were talking, but I wasn't listening. I wasn't interested in anything anyone had to say.
Michael Thomas Ford
That sounds so weird: kill yourself. It makes it sound like you tried to murder someone, only that someone is you. But killing someone is wrong, and I don't think suicide is. It's my life, right? I should be able to end it if I want to. I don't think it's a sin.
