Hey Escapists -
My friends and I are starting an initiative in our graduate year, to graffiti quotes inside the toilet cubicles around the school over the course of the year.
While one could learn a great deal from regular toilet cubicle graffiti, like who can suck what, or whether Miss Hooper is more attractive (paraphrasing here) than Miss Williams, we believe that just one brilliant, memorable, idiosyncratic quote inserted into one student's otherwise bogstandard day could make a tangible difference.
We each have our own favourite quotes, like Ernest Hemingway's opinion on wine, or Emily Dickinson's reflections on you (yes, you, it's always you she's talking about in a Dickinson poem), but we'd love to hear from you guys:
We're looking for quotes that are concise & cleverly worded without being one-liners, profound & thought-provoking without being dense, and most of all relatable for a moderately-intelligent teenager.
Names are also preferred, but we're open to any type of author, from writers of classic literature, to Nobel prize-winning chemists, conspiracy nut jobs, paralympian bobsledders or even the bloke who sweeps the inside of the Large Hadron Collider (inside joke).
I eagerly await your wonderful suggestions!
