Perhaps people don't come into their true maturity until a parent dies.

It's better to wear seaweed socks than stick a melon in your brother's ear.

I feel I've got 10 books in me.

There are times when you get hit upon, Try hard but you cannot give. Other times you'd gladly part, With what you need to live

Ain't no time to hate, barely time to wait

Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world.

Poised for flight, Wings spread bright, Spring from night into the Sun.
