alright so by now most of you know that i've been working on my writing a lot. but here's the thing i need some good quotes to put into it (one of the characters is a philosopher of sorts and i picture them as someone who would quote historical figures/ works often) so heres the deal i'm going to give the person i deem to have picked the best quote 30% of my next post (and the quote has the highest chance of getting into the book. maybe i'll base a character on you or something as well:D ) second place gets 20% and third gets 10%. try to make sure the quotes are meaning full i doesn't need to be about life, death, leadership but i would prefer that theme. just make sure that it means something to you or you think it has a great message. can't wait to see what you guys pick :)
