I save them either in my computer or scraps of paper. When I am really lucky, one of these random thoughts will actually turn into something. I save everything. You never know which seed will grow and blossom.

Oh, and read, read everything and often. It will keep your mind and imagination in shape.(less)
Amy Jacobson I get to let the voices out of my head and onto paper where they get to explore anything and everything.

“That first kiss, it still has a way of making us nervous as teenagers, no matter how old we get.”
Amy Jacobson, A Ride of a Lifetime

Amy Jacobson, A Ride of a Lifetime

“These tabloids are the only things that get me through my dull and mundane commute. They are my way of reminding me that there are people way more screwed up then I am.”
Amy Jacobson, A Ride of a Lifetime

“The real lover is the man who can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring into space.”
Marilyn Monroe

“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”
Marilyn Monroe

“Don’t walk in front of me… I may not follow
Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead
Walk beside me… just be my friend”
Albert Camus

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
H. Jackson Brown Jr., P.S. I Love You

“A woman has to live her life, or live to repent not having lived it.”
