Laurie Halse Anderson Quotes:
Ocupation: Writer
Life: b. October 23, 1961
Birthday: October 23
Puke and starve and cut and drink because you don't want to feel any of this. Puke and starve and cut and drink because you need an anesthetic and it works. For awhile. But then the anesthetic turns into poison and by then it's to late because you are maintaining it now,straight into your soul. It is rotting you and you can't stop.
