My personal favorite is Antoine de Saint-Exupery’s dedication on The Little Prince. What are your favorites?

“To Leon Werth

I ask children to forgive me for dedicating this book to a grown-up. I have a serious excuse; this grown-up is the best friend I have in the world. I have another excuse: this grown-up can understand everything, even books for children. I have a third excuse: he lives in France where he is hungry and cold. He needs to be comforted. If all these excuses are not enough, then I want to dedicate this book to the child whom this grown-up once was. All grown-ups were children first. (But few of them remember it.) So I correct my dedication:

To Leon Werth When he was a little boy”

    To those whose favourite Color is morally grey ~ Twisted Lies Ana Huang And This is for the ones that lost their voice. This is for the ones that wish they were Lana Myers. This is for the ones people still whisper about. This is for the ones that fight every single day to forget. You are not alone.

    So many names left to go …

    Einstein said, “The weak revenge. The strong forgive. The intelligent ignore.”

    Fuck that Einstein wasn’t always right.

    Revenge is a dish best served cold… now that I agree with. It means that they forget you’re coming for them, and their screams sound so much prettier when their time finally comes. ~ The Risk (the mindfu*k series) S. T. Abby
