->''I don't have any fond summertime memories, but that's okay. I'm never gone on a family vacation, but it's fine, because I'm treated like I'm special wherever I am. I've never been to a festival with fireworks before, but I don't mind, because no matter how far away they are, the lights I see from my window are still beautiful to me. [...] But with the sweets comes the sours. Happiness and sadness are meant to be balanced. With so many good things going for me, it's only natural that I endure some less-than-pleasant things too. I can't recall a single time my father has ever said "goodnight" to me. I don't remember him saying things like "take care", "good job", or "I love you" either. But it doesn't hurt me, because it's always been this way. The only thing I feel is numb at this point, and that's okay. All anyone expects from me is that I behave appropriately for someone of my standing and society. I'm like a fragile package they're doing their best not to break, and inside that package is a creepy porcelain doll.''

->''If there's one thing movies have taught us about rich kids, it's that endless money and opportunity will only ruin your life. These children are isolated, their parents don't care, and the other kids will have nothing to do with them because being rich is...embarrassing? Somehow? No matter that wealthy parents actually spend more time with their children than low-income parents, for a variety of obvious reasons. In movies, rich children are all so crushingly lonely that they have to hire friends.''
