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

Favorite Quote:
There is a voice inside of you<br /> That whispers all day long,<br /> "I feel this is right for me,<br /> I know that this is wrong."<br /> No teacher, preacher, parent, friend<br /> Or wise man can decide<br /> What's right for you--just listen to<br /> The voice that speaks inside.”<br /> ― Shel Silverstein
