I wish I could be a child again, Innocent in this strange world, Untouched and unharmed by the grips of reality A virgin player in this game of life, Waiting my chance to roll...

"Now, no matter what the mullah teaches, there is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft... When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness... There is no act more wretched than stealing" Baba to Amir, The Kite Runner

&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;Life is short. Break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably! And never regret anything that made you smile...&quot;
