• Every calorie is another brick in the pathway to hell.
• Pain is weakness leaving the body.
• Bones define who we really are -- let them show.
• Thin has a taste all its own.
• Calories can't make you happy.
• I'm not starving myself, I'm perfecting my emptiness.
• Don't give up what you want most for something you want in the moment.
• Don't eat. If you want to see food, look in the mirror at your thighs.
• The word is control. That's my ultimate - to have control.
• Eat to live, but don't live to eat.
• Every time you say "No Thank you" to food, you say, "Yes Please" to Thin.
• Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.
• Don't do anything today that you'll regret tomorrow.
• The hungrier you are, the more fat you burn.
• This is forever. I will do whatever it takes. I want to be thin more than anything, even food.
• Starvation is fulfilling. Colors become brighter, sounds sharper, odors so much more savory and penetrating that inhalation fills every fibre and pore of the body. The greatest enjoyment of food is actually found when never a morsel passes the lips.
• One day I will be thin enough. Just the bones, no disfiguring flesh. Just the pure, clean shape of me, bones. That is what we all are, what we're made up of and everything else is just storage, deposit, waste. Strip it away, use it up.
• It's simple: you decide once and for all that you aren't going to eat, and there is no further decision to make.
• In the body, as in sculpture, perfection is not attained when there is nothing left to add, but nothing left to take away.
• I do eat normally; I eat only what is necessary for survival. I can't help it that we live in a piggish society where gluttony is the norm, and everyone else is constantly stuffing themselves.
• When I wake, I'm empty, light, light-headed. I like to stay this way, free and pure, light on my feet, traveling light. For me, food's only interest lies in how little I need, how strong I am, how well I can resist, each time achieving another small victory of the will.
• There is no try. There is only do.
• You can learn to love anything, I think, if you need to badly enough. I trained myself to enjoy feeling hungry. If my stomach contracts, or I wake up feeling nauseated, or I'm light-headed or have a hunger headache, or better yet, all of the above, it means I'm getting thinner, so it feels good. I feel strong, on top of myself, in control.
