Jeffrey Eugenides Quote

I don't want to ruin your life, Leonard said in a gentler tone.You're not ruining it.The drugs just slow the process down. But the end's inevitable. The question is, how to turn this thing off? He jabbed at his head with his index finger. It's cutting me up, and I can't turn it off. Madeleine, listen to me. Listen. I'm not going to get better.
