    Steve Jobs
    “Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

    Alexandra Bracken
    “Black is the color that is no color at all.
    Black is the color of a child's still, empty bedroom. The heaviest hour of night-the one that traps you in your bunk, suffocating in another nightmare. It is a uniform stretched over the broad shoulders of an angry young man. Black is the mud, the lidless eye watching your every breath, the low vibrations of the fence that stretches up to tear at the sky.
    It is a road. A forgotten night sky broken up by faded stars.
    It is the barrel of a new gun, leveled at your heart.
    The color of Chubs's hair, Liam's bruises, Zu's eyes.
    Black is a promise of tomorrow, bled dry from lies and hate.
    Betrayal.
    I see it in the face of a broken compass, feel it in the numbing grip of grief.
    I run, but it is my shadow. Chasing, devouring, polluting. It is the button that should never have been pushed, the door that shouldn't have opened, the dried blood that couldn't be washed away. It is the charred remains of buildings. The car hidden in the forest, waiting. It is the smoke.
    It is the fire.
    The spark.
    Black is the color of memory.
    It is our color.
    The only one they'll use to tell our story.”
    Alexandra Bracken, In the Afterlight
