clueless. First of all, why the hell would someone care about what you’re eating for dinner? And, unless you’re a chef, why would you take a picture of it in the first place?”

Jacqueline Woodson
Before, you used to hear the word immigration and it sounded like everything you ever believed in. It sounded like feliz cumpleaños and merry Christmas and welcome home. But now you hear it and you get scared because it sounds like a word that makes you want to disappear. It sounds like someone getting stolen away from you.
Jacqueline Woodson, Harbor Me

Jacqueline Woodson
“I am in love with everything around me,
the dotted white lines moving
across my teacher's blackboard, the smell of chalk, the flag jutting out from the wall and slowly swaying above.
There is nothing more beautiful that P.S. 106.
Nothing more perfect than my first-grade classroom.
No one more kind than Ms. Feilder, who meets me at the door each morning,
takes my hand from my sister's, smiles down and says,
Now that Jacqueline is here, the day can begin.
And I believe her.
Yes, I truly believe her.”
Jacqueline Woodson, Brown Girl Dreaming

“I didn't know it would be people you barely knew becoming friends that harbored you. And dreams you didn't even know you had - coming true. I didn't know it would be superpowers rising up out of tragedies, and perfect moments in a nearly empty classroom.”
Jacqueline Woodson, Harbor Me

Ray Bradbury
“The seller of lightning rods arrived just ahead of the storm.”
Ray Bradbury, Something Wicked This Way Comes

Ray Bradbury
“The metal thing was hammered and shaped half-crescent, half-cross.Around the rim of the
main rod little curlicues and doohingies had been soldered on, later. The entire surface of the rod was finely scratched and etched with strange languages, names that could tie the tongue or break the jaw, numerals that added to incomprehensible sums, pictographs of insect animals all bristle, chaff, and claw" (Bradbury 6). In this quote, Bradbury is giving us and showing what the character is describing, In this case, it is an Egyptian Scarab. How the quote was described was to attract the eyes of Jim, or even the readers.”
Ray Bradbury, Something Wicked This Way Comes
