    This one is one I made up and used in my recently finished novel. It is a scene where a young girl had to listen to the likes of an old woman, always putting the girl down.

    'So much garbage comes out of your mouth, anyone would think I was a tip!'

    That's fantastic Mary. What's the title of your novel? I'll run to the bookshelves and get me a copy before it's a sold-out

    I need to read through it first... I will... just I haven't...

    "The feeling is unparalleled, when you look in the mirror and see your identity staring back at you."
    That would be good if I ever went through anything traumatic, not that I'm likely to.
    For I have known them all already, known them all:
    Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
    I know the voices dying with a dying fall
    Beneath the music from a farther room.

    So how should I presume?
    Eliot

    That was quite profound. Really hit me. Come to think of it, my identity has been staring at me quite often lately

    One from me:
    "My sins have come collect, and the cost is one I can't afford"

    Same for me, that's how it came into my head. It's like your reflection constantly reminding you of who you truly are, not what the way you wish you were.
    "My sins have come collect, and the cost is one I can't afford"
    That's not a happy one, but it is ironic, and really is true.

    Yes, it sadly happens... more often than not.

    "I'm not handsome, so don't make me" - that's me... sort of.

    "When you step in front of the mirror you can stare at quite a few details. Your reflection is only staring at you" - inspired by Heathcliff's previous post

    Prize the doubt!
    "real
    loneliness
    is not
    necessarily
    limited to
    when
    you are
    alone
    "

    "Honesty to oneself is oh so very lonesome." - me
    I'm losing all those stupid games
    That I swore I'd never play
