Richelle E. Goodrich
Rewards live at the far edge of honest sweat, heavy toil, and dogged determination.
Richelle E. Goodrich, A Heart Made of Tissue Paper

Ellen Hopkins
Have you ever had so much to say that your mouth closed up tight struggling to harness the nuclear force coalescing within your words? Have you ever had so many thoughts churning inside you that you didn’t dare let them escape in case they blew you wide open? Have you ever been so angry that you couldn’t look in the mirror for fear of finding the face of evil glaring back at you?
Ellen Hopkins, "Crank"
