quotes and headings and such silly nonsense

BOOKS
The Catcher in the Rye
"What I was really hanging around for, I was trying to feel some kind of a good-by. I mean I've left schools and places I didn't even know I was leaving them. I hate that. I don't care if it's a sad good-by or a bad good-by, but when I leave a place I like to know I'm leaving it. If you don't, you feel even worse."-Holden Caulfield

StarGirl
"I'm erased. I'm gone. I'm nothing. And then the world is free to flow into me like water into an empty bowl…. And… I see. I hear. But not with eyes and ears. I'm not outside my world anymore, and I'm not really inside it either. The thing is, there's no difference between me and the universe. The boundary is gone. I am it and it is me. I am a stone, a cactus thorn. I am rain. I like that most of all, being rain."-Stargirl

FRIENDS
Grace DiGeorge
Good friends must not always be together; It is the feeling of oneness when distant
That proves a lasting friendship.

How do you know you've found your best friend?  When you are ready to talk
to them about anything, even though they know everything about you already.

Rinnah Henderson
Sometimes creativity is a compulsion, not an ambition.

Tia Luciano
"A person is only complete when she has a true
friend to understand her, to share all her passions and sorrows with,
and to stand by her throughout her life." - Oscar Wilde

Casey Libey
Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden
when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved
brings a warmth and a richness to life that nothing else can bring.


FAMILY
Garret King
We are all inventors, each sailing out on a voyage of discovery, guided
each by a private chart, of which there is no duplicate. The world is all gates,
all opportunities.

Conor Kenna
A friend is one who knows us, but
loves us anyway.


Calvin and Hobbes

That's the difference
between me and the rest of the world! Happiness isn't good enough for me!
I demand euphoria!
