    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

    Lisa Tawn Bergren
    “Lia aimed, shifted and waited, watching one man peek out time and time again. She let her arrow fly anticipating his next peek at us and it pierced his eye.

    “Okay that’s just going to make ’em mad ” I said.

    “Three hundred and ninety-two ” she said to Luca tossing her braid over her shoulder and taking aim again.

    “Saints in heaven ” he said to me rolling his eyes “how much deeper in love can I yet fall?”
