&ldquo;Maybe you can afford to wait. Maybe for you there&#039;s a tomorrow. Maybe for you there&#039;s one thousand tomorrows, or three thousand, or ten, so much time you can bathe in it, roll around it, let it slide like coins through you fingers. So much time you can waste it.<br /> But for some of us there&#039;s only today. And the truth is, you never really know.&rdquo; <br /> ― Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall

&ldquo;The only people for me are<br /> the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be<br /> saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn<br /> or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow<br /> roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle<br /> you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes &quot;Awww!&rdquo;-Jack Kerouac
