“When we first started out I had a really big issue and a lot of my loved ones had a really big issue with the fact that I was totally in pain up there and there was a time when I tried to hurt myself off stage, but I got over that. Like, you should never want to hurt yourself. You should love yourself. Sometimes you have to kind of die inside in order to rise from your own ashes and believe in yourself and love yourself and become a new person and I think that that is going to be a lot of what the next record is about, not to plug it or anything. Like, it's going to talk about dying and coming back to become what you totally want to become. We are all becoming what we want to become.”
Gerard Way
“In the arithmetic of love, one plus one equals everything, and two minus one equals nothing”
Mignon McLaughlin
“The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.”
Jalal ad-Din Rumi
“Every man is thoroughly happy twice in his life: just after he has met his first love, and just after he has left his last one”
Henry Louis Mencken
“Men always want to be a woman's first love - women like to be a mans last romance.”
Oscar Wilde
“Men always want to be a woman's first love. That is their clumsy vanity. We woman have a more subtle instinct about things. What we like is to be a man's last romance.”
“The magic of first love is our ignorance that it can ever end”
Benjamin Disraeli
