10.<br /> I am a princess, all girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics. Even if they dress in rags, even if they aren&#039;t pretty or smart or young. They&#039;re still princesses, all of us.&quot; -Frances Hodgeson Burnett, A Little Princess<br /> or<br /> 1.<br /> Live in the present, remember the past and fear not the future, for it doesn&#039;t exist and never shall. There is only now.&quot; _Christopher Paolini, Eldest
