Sometimes I wonder why I type all day long. Am I trying to beat my last score or just trying to beat the ever pressing boredom that sets in from putting a full eight-hour work day together? Maybe I am just wasting time until the Browns play this Sunday? Who knows? I guess I'll just get back to work before I get busted.

- A tip on smashing out those dastardly long quotes.
Begin the quote a little slower than usual. If you keep 100% accuracy for the first couple of lines, you can then speed up and afford to make a couple of mistakes without your WPM dropping too much. If you start off with a speed penalty because you messed up the first word, you will find it much harder to bring the score up to your usual speed.

No matter how much I try, I crash. But If I'm with you, crashing is also beautiful. On the other side of the sky, I'll gladly sink down. I just want us to hug each other around the time that my clumsy flight ends. Even if everyone laughs at me, I don't care. I want to sink down in your ocean.

I don't wanna be just friends. It's no coincidence, it's a kitty-incidence They be testing out your patience, but I'm here for it. Girl, I promise. Let's play forever, I just wanna be your dog.

Remember how I used to be so stuck in one place so cold. Feeling like my heart just froze, nowhere to go with no one, nobody. Suddenly you came through making me make a move. Nobody got it like you. I can't look away, I can't.

I hurt my thumb playing volleyball today. It was the last hit, and my team was shouting to get it over the net. I ended up hurting my thumb when I hit it weird. I really did try to hit the ball. There's no worse feeling than your best not being good enough.

I've always done whatever I want and always been exactly who I am. In the public eye, girls and women with strong perspectives are hated. If you're a girl with an opinion, people just hate you.

Love is a really scary thing, and you never know what's going to happen. It's one of the most beautiful things in life, but it's one of the most terrifying. It's worth the fear because you have more knowledge, experience, you learn from people, and you have memories.

Although mathematicians sometimes belittle a colleague's work by calling it "recreational" mathematics, much serious mathematics has come out of recreational problems, which test mathematical logic and reveal mathematical truths.

- The Tower of Nero
Anytime you take aim and prepare to fire your best shot, anytime you seek to put your emotions into a song or poem, know that I am smiling on you. We are friends now. Call on me. I will be there for you.

- Gustav Gloom and the People Taker
Why, that very book you just looked at has what would have been the greatest poem ever written, until some silly man knocked on the poet's door, interrupted his day, took up his time, and put all those great lines right out of his brilliant head and back into the world of shadows.

You have found a library of all the ideas that never came to be; all the great books never written, all the dangerous visions never imagined, all the great inventions that poor men could have built and made themselves rich.

- Love
To the love, I never confessed: There is not even a single day pass without your thought. Love to you flows as tears down my cheeks. The same pink cheeks that once waited for your kiss. Why am I not beside you? Why fate separated us?

His voice like a bad phone connection, a robot, between locked teeth - sees him swallow and close his eyes instead of shouting at her - realises just how bad it must be - every emotion he's withheld from her for the last eighteen years - boiling and writhing across his face now. It's as if the locked strongbox inside has burst open and everything in there is rippling free and exorcised to the surface.

- The Beatrice Letters
I will love you if I never see you again, and I will love you if I see you every Tuesday. I will love you no matter where you go and who you see, I will love you if you don't marry me. I will love you if you marry someone else - and I will love you if you never marry at all, and spend your years wishing you had married me after all. That is how I will love you even as the world goes on its wicked way.

Frank Slovak had overturned his tractor onto himself. Not dead, they said, but might as well be. His wife found him, they went on, pausing to let their listener visualise this. Everyone had imagined, sometimes, making that crazed run across the paddocks, faint with whimpering dread, the air sickeningly still over your head like the eye of a storm. Yeah his wife, they said finally, nodding. The quiet one.

- Laziness Does Not Exist
People do not choose to fail or disappoint. No one wants to feel incapable, apathetic, or ineffective. If you look at a person's action (or inaction) and see only laziness, you are missing key details. There is always an explanation. There are always barriers. Just because you can't see them, or don't view them as legitimate, doesn't mean they're not there. Look harder.
Sandra Cisnero
- A House of My Own
Not a flat. Not an apartment in back. Not a man's house. Not a daddy's. A house all my own. With my porch and my pillow, my pretty purple petunias. My books and my stories. My two shoes waiting beside the bed. Nobody to shake a stick at. Nobody's garbage to pick up after. Only a house quiet as snow, a space for myself to go, clean as paper before the poem.

- Communication
The way in which we communicate is paramount. If I wish to convey my exact feelings to another, I must exhaust all resources that I have at my disposal. I must use the inflection in my voice, gestures and facial expressions to augment the ideas I put forth. Ultimately, the goal is to understand one another as best we can.
