I'm not religious, I'm not romantic and I live purely by logic. I make every decision by logic and sometimes that leads me to the right and sometimes to the wrong decision.
I need some isolation, it's necessary to me, that's just who I am. I need to be left alone.
I love the way you can fall in love with a piece of literature how words alone can get your heart doing that.
The romanticised life, where all the great poetry and music and art of the world comes from, is great but it requires a lot of self-indulgence.
