Rule by the people round one

So I just got done with my first rounds contest and it was the biggest waste of time and points. I didn't even like any of the poems that much in the last round. So this time, each round is going to be something that you people seem to like (picture-inspired, quotes, titles, word bank, etc.)

So for this round, just write me a quote. Make it either thought-provoling or funny. Make it your own; NO STEALING ANYONE'S WORDS! And please only enter if you're actually going to see this whole series through. I don't want to waste my time on you if you're not. All the entries I like will move on to the second round.

Rules:
~No cursing.
~No erotica.
~No bashing.

Have fun!

~star~
