About Me

I'm a vegetarian. And a humanitarian. I like psychology and cats.

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars..."-Jack Kerouac

"What a cruel thing is war: to separate and destroy families and friends, and mar the purest joys and happiness 'god' has granted us in this world; to fill our hearts with hatred instead of love for our neighbors, and to devastate the fair face of this beautiful world."
