"There are many stories in Twin Peaks. Some of them are sad, some funny. Some of them are stories of madness, of violence.
Some are ordinary. Yet they all have about them a sense of mystery. The mystery of life. Sometimes, the mystery of death.
The mystery of the woods. The woods surrounding Twin Peaks. To introduce this story, let me just say it encompasses the all.
It is beyond the fire, though few would know that meaning. It is a story of many, but it begins with one--and I knew her.
The one leading to the many is Laura Palmer. Laura is the one."

"...A lost little girl and a madwoman confined behind her last shred of sanity, and her last days on earth. She extends her emotions beyond the obvious sympathy though: the fact that Laura's merely a child who has been sexually abused by the men of her idyllic small town for the better (worst) part of her life. Laura knows she has nothing left, even if she's so far been able to veil her consuming inner demons behind charity work and a spiraling drug addiction. She is a girl on fire whose only hope is to be extinguished, and perhaps the most grim notion...is that Laura knows, and occasionally desires, that her end is near."
