    “Do not follow me! Let's just be fabulously where we are and who we are. You be you and I'll be me, today and today and today, and let's trust the future to tommorrow. Let the stars keep track of us. Let us ride our own orbits and trust that they will meet. May our reunion be not a finding but a sweet collision of destinies!”
    Jerry Spinelli, Love, Stargirl

    “Live today. Not yesterday. Not tomorrow. Just today. Inhabit your moments. Don’t rent them out to tomorrow. Do you know what you’re doing when you spend a moment wondering how things are going to turn out with Perry?

    You’re cheating yourself out of today. Today is calling to you, trying to get your attention, but you’re stuck on tomorrow, and today trickles away like water down a drain. You wake up the next morning and that today you wasted is gone forever. It’s now yesterday. Some of those moments may have had wonderful things in store for you , but now you’ll never know.”
    Jerry Spinelli, Love, Stargirl

    “She was elusive. She was today. She was tomorrow. She was the faintest scent of a cactus flower, the flitting shadow of an elf owl. We did not know what to make of her. In our minds we tried to pin her to a cork board like a butterfly, but the pin merely went through and away she flew.”
    Jerry Spinelli, Stargirl

    Nicholas Sparks
    “Do you want a cookie?
    - What?
    - A cookie. Like an Oreo. Do you want one?
    - No.
    - How can you not want a cookie?
    - I just don't.
    - Okay, fine,let's say you did want a cookie. Let's say you were dying for a cookie, and there were cookies in the cupboard. What would you do?
    - I'd eat a cookie?
    - Exactly. That's all I'm saying.
    - What are you saying?
    - That if people want cookies, they should get a cookie. It's what people do.
    - Let me guess. Dad won't let you have a
    cookie?
    - No. Even though I'm practically starving to death, he won't even consider it. He says I have to have a sandwich first.
    - And you don't think that's fair.
    - You just said you'd get a cookie if you wanted one. So why can't I? I'm not a little kid. I can make my own decisions.
    - Hmm. I can see why this bothers you so
    much.
    - It's not fair. If he wants a cookie, he can have one. If you want a cookie,
    you can have one. But if I want a cookie, the rules don't count. Like you
    said, it's not fair.
    - So what are you going to do?
    - I'm going to eat a sandwich. Because I have to. Because the world isn't fair
    to ten-year-olds.”
    Nicholas Sparks, The Last Song

    Steve Jobs
    “Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
    Steve Jobs
