Jocelyn Leigh | 6 comments The quote "It's the easier choice. . .Water always follows the path of least resistance. We often do the same," in The Wizernard Series: Training Camp, really stood out to me. it made me think about how choosing the easier path doesn't always lead to a better outcome. Sometimes we have to make the hard choices and take a difficult path that will ultimately get us to where we wanna be, rather than just doing what is easy, or following the same path as everyone else.

Michelle Molina | 2 comments "Without the Thursday interludes the week is as featureless as a desert" This line was interesting because of the language the author used to describe

Foster Pratt | 7 comments I read “And Then There Were None” by Agatha Christie. A line that stood out to me was, “Mr. Justice Wargrave, lately retired from the bench, puffed at a cigar and ran an interested eye through the political news in The Times.” I loved this quote because it’s just a great piece of writing and language. I can picture exactly what the author is writing and it just flows so nicely.

Brandon Henry | 6 comments maze runner "Chuck i think i've been here before". i like this quote because it's a very early foreshadow to toms powers and memories.

Your responses should be detailed and well thought out!..."

i agree that is very shocking.


officialeerobutella | 3 comments "But today, just the simple handshakes we shared was a welcome addition to my sensory deprived life." I choose this quote because it represents how people who are wrongfully incarcerated may feel if they are in solitary confinement. I read the book Just Mercy.

Zparks | 5 comments one quote that stood out to me was that no,no sky is not the limit its only the beginning. this quote stood of to me because im used to hearing that sky is the limit and for for someone to say sky is not the limit its only the beginning was lowkey inspiring
