Confusion Quote by Leslie Stella
““The line between reality and illusion is getting blurry. Sometimes I really do think everyone hates me. Sometimes the crazy is all I’ve got. My head’s pounding again. I hate all this: the pathology and the defiance and the confusion about whether I’m getting better or worse. And yet it is so totally me. I know that none of it ends here tonight. Not by a long shot.””
