“I need some help because I’m still my worst enemy. No matter where I am, I’ll still get the best of me. I’m my own enemy.” - Trevor McNevan of Thousand Foot Krutch“How easily and insensibly we fall into a particular route, and make a beaten path for ourselves.” - Henry David Thoreau (Walden)“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” Attributed to Edmund Burke, included by John F Kennedy in a speech in 1961.“That we try to suffocate, you know, hopin' it dies

Then it hovers over you to tell you millions of lies” -NF
