“I still get awful depression. It's who I am.” — Marian Keyes Quote

“I still get awful depression. It's who I am.”

“My truth is that what doesn't kill you makes you weaker rather than stronger, although it makes you wiser.”

“It was ironic, really - you want to die because you can't be bothered to go on living - but then you're expected to get all energetic and move furniture and stand on chairs and hoist ropes and do complicated knots and attach things to other things and kick stools from under you and mess around with hot baths and razor blades and extension cords and electrical appliances and weedkiller. Suicide was a complicated, demanding business, often involving visits to hardware shops.”

“I wouldn't want a film to be made on my life, because I suppose I would only want them to show all the good things about me and hide the awful things, and that wouldn't be a very honest biopic, no?”

“I don't know if I want to walk down the street and have everyone staring. I think that would be awful. I'm a pretty shy person, really.”

“It's a merger of home life and work life. They aren't that separate, I must confess, and my daughters know an awful lot about childcare reform now because of it.”
