&ldquo;Sure, I can talk like you, but I choose not to, It&#039;s like an art, you know? Picasso had to prove to the world he could paint the right way, before he goes putting both eyes on the side of a face... See if you paint wrong because that&#039;s the best you can do, you just a chump. But you do it because you want to? Then you&#039;re an artist...You can take that to the grave and dig it up when you need it.&rdquo; <br /> ― Neal Shusterman, Unwind

&quot;The power of words is not in how they work, what they mean, or even how they are put together. It is in their unique ability to communicate and to create a lasting impression through which they make a real impression.&quot;

<br /> Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That&rsquo;s why we call it the present.<br /> <br /> The greatest thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving. -Oliver Wendell Holmes-
