Do you have any favorite authors or quotes?

My favourite author is Stephen King because his books are just so easy to read, his style is really fluent and I just love his way of telling a story.

I have a few favourite quotes, but I like this on from Tim Burton (who is my favourite artist)

One person's craziness is another person's reality.

Do you have any favorite authors or quotes?
Only to name a few:
CHRISTOPHER PAOLINI
JOHN FLANAGAN
J.K.ROWLING
J.R.R.TOLKIEN
KATHRYN LASKY
(They're probably in the right order, although Christopher Paolini and John Flanagan are at the same level, same as Rowling and Tolkien.)
And more!!

"I believe something very magical can happen when you open a good book."
~J.K.Rowling
"A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads lives only one."
~Unknown
"The man who doesn't read has no advantage over the man who can't read."
~Unknown

And that's just a few!

(And yes, I relate to @Silver's meme. A lot.)

Do you have any favorite authors or quotes?
Paulo Coelho, Marina Keegan, JRR Tolkien, Charles Bukowski. I finished some days The Catcher in Rye and I really like the author, but I'm not sure if he is one of my favorites. '3'

Do you have any favorite authors or quotes?
i have many favorite quotes, and less favorite authors.

"blessed are the dead the rain falls on" - great gatsby

"Misunderstood! It is a right fool's word. Is it so bad then to be misunderstood? Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh. To be great is to be misunderstood." - self reliance by ralph waldo emerson

i have many others, but these two i love.

Happy birthday Ranger!

I started a little bit of writing earlier, what do you guys think (it's very unfinished and spontaneous, so keep that in mind. also keep in mind that this was actually based on some feelings I was having earlier)

Do you ever just look around and realise you've chosen the wrong group of friends.
Right now, look to your left. There's a big group of your favourite people who can make you laugh no matter what.
Now, look right. There's a group of guys looking at funny pictures, and you wish they would show you as well.
Behind you. They're the "nerds" of your year group, but they have conversations about the same stuff you like. They play cards in the morning and never fail to include you, if you want.
Then look at who you're sat with. Your "best friend" who completely ignores you for days, weeks on end, and for no apparent reason, then pretends like nothing happened. Then there's the guy who used to like, who you no longer have feelings for, but the awkwardness is still there. There's the friend who you've only started talking to recently, and the one who annoys you despite supposedly being your best friend, after the one who is ignoring you.
How does that feel?
Empty? It feels like you've made the wrong choices in life. Regret. So much regret.
You could be being invited to parties, involved in social gatherings. But you're stuck with the people who cant be bothered. Whilst you're prepared to take the hour bus journey into town, they can't be bothered to drive 10 minutes to meet up. You're completely isolated, and they don't care.
That's unfair. It's only one person who can't be bothered. She doesn't care about you. Your best friend of 6 years is ignoring you, not telling you why she's doing it, and has never once stayed over for a sleepover, never met up outside of school. Only one person doesn't care, and she's draining every last good feeling from your ever deprecated mind.
She's toxic, but if you decide to leave the group, you're the bad guy. She gets no repercussions for treating you like (poop), but if you say so much as one thing, you're the bad guy.
You're the bad guy.

(okay I got a little carried away at the end there, i'd only written up to "empty" earlier whoops)

Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday dear Ranger....
Happy birthday to you!

@Winged
That's really beautiful, there's so much emotions in it!

When you say 'favourite quote' two quotes come to mind. Interestingly enough both quotes from fanfiction, both said by the same character but by different authors:

"Freedom, is the power to determine actions without restraint. At least that's what the dictionary says. But freedom is so much more than that. It's what makes us who we are. Think of the birds that fly outside. They can go anywhere; no one orders them around. They need to move, to fly around. Being locked in a cage in unnatural for them, as it is for us." (Author: Tanglepelt)

"No, we refused to fight, not because we weren't strong enough, but because we were. We needed no swords, no guns, no bombs to earn our freedom.

We needed only our voices." (Author: ravenwriter88)
