What I say... This page basically lists some stuff I've said while I've been in this hospital. Things just come out of my mouth, sometimes, like I don't even realize what I'm saying. I usually don't think before speaking, which is probably why I've had a bad history with the law in the past. Some of the "quotes" here were noted either by the hospital's staff or people on the ward.

Some of the stuff I've said in the past: One thing which I probably brought to the ward was my laughter. Before I came along, there probably wasn’t any happiness in the ward and nobody had probably laughed in years. I think I somehow gave my great new buds a sense of freedom. Everyone I met seemed to finally realize that being in this crazy place, didn't mean that they were crazy as well. "Jesus, I mean you guys do nothing but complain about how you can't stand it in this place here and then you haven't got the guts just to walk out? What do you think you are for Christ sake, crazy or something? Well, you're not! You're not! You're no crazier than the average asshole out walking around on the streets." You know... When I said this, I just wanted to comfort the guys... Ratched makes them all seem as if they're crazier than they really are (but most of them really aren't). "Good morning, buddies." Those guys always seemed to keep to themselves... I would just cheer them up in the morning, make 'em feel that they do have someone that cares about them. "Why then, I'll just explain it to you. The flock gets sight of a spot of blood on some chicken and they all go to peckin' at it, see, till they rip the chicken to shreds, blood and bones and feathers. But usually a couple of the flock gets spotted in the fracas, then it's their turn. And a few more gets spots and gets pecked to death, and more and more. Oh, a peckin' party can wipe out the whole flock in a matter of a few hours, buddy, I seen it. A mighty awesome sight. The only way to prevent it—with chickens—is to clip blinders on them. So's they can't see." After my first group meeting, I couldn't believe how the boys enjoyed seeing the Big Nurse destroy another fellow patient. I had to tell the boys this because what they were doing was crazy. The only way that we could fight the nurse would be by uniting with each other.
