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. ... World peace is only a dream because people won't allow themselves and others around them to simply be peanuts.

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