Girls are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the trees. The boys don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples that are on the ground that aren't as good, but easy. So the apples at the top think there is something wrong with them, when, in reality, they are amazing. They just have to wait for the right boy to come along, the one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree.

Scenery is nothing more than poetry.<br /> Love is nothing more than chemicals.<br /> &#039;Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.<br /> One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.

&ldquo;When you&rsquo;re a kid, they tell you it&rsquo;s all&hellip; Grow up, get a job, get married, get a house, have a kid, and that&rsquo;s it. But the truth is, the world is so much stranger than that. It&rsquo;s so much darker. And so much madder. And so much better.&rdquo; ~ Doctor Who
