Erin Gruwell Quotes
It sounds strange, somewhat on the line between irony and absurdity, to think that people would rather label and judge something as significant as each other but completely bypass a peanut. ...

We won't allow him to be a peanut, therefore we won't allow ourselves to come to live in harmony. (Diary 18)
