We're going to right the world and live. I mean live our lives the way lives were meant to be lived. With the throat and wrists. With rage and desire, and joy and grief, and love till it hurts, maybe. But goddamn, girl. Live.

About This Quote

We're going to right the world and live. I mean live our lives the way lives were meant to be lived. With the throat and wrists. With rage and desire, and joy and grief, and love till it hurts, maybe.

But goddamn, girl. Live. This quote is very meaningful because it's about living your life the way it's supposed to be.

You should live with passion, not just exist through your daily existence. You should have a purpose, not just follow the crowd. When you feel something strongly you should act on it without thinking about what other people could say or think about you doing so.
