    “Artemis: (shocked) Why, Doctor? This is a sensitive area. For all you know I could be suffering from depression.
    Doctor Po: I suppose you could. Is that the case?
    Artemis: (head in hands) It's my mother, Doctor.
    Doctor Po: Yes?
    Artemis: My mother, she...
    Doctor Po: Your mother, yes?
    Artemis: She forces me to endure this ridiculous therapy when the school's so-called counsellors are little better than misguided do-gooders with degrees.”

    “Hey, look—your girlfriend is saying something."
    Artemis had a vast mental reserve of scathing comebacks at his disposal, but none of them covered girlfriend insults. He wasn't even sure if it was an insult. And if it was, who was being insulted? Him or the girl?”

    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.”
