More quotations from Augusten Burroughs

I think part of the reason I'm attracted to him is because he's such a mess. I mean, the people I have loved in my life have never been easy to love. I'm not used to normal. I'm used to disaster. I don't know, as messed up as he is, he's also sort of exciting, sort of a challenge. I'm accustomed to working for love.

—Augusten Burroughs in Dry
