S.E. Hinton, The Outsiders

"Nothing Stay Forever""Nature’s first green is gold,"Her hardest hue to hold."Her early leaf’s a flower;"But only so an hour."Then leaf subsides to leaf."So Eden sank to grief,"So dawn goes down today."Nothing gold can stay.-- Robert Frost"

"Stay gold, Ponyboy, stay gold."

"It's okay. We aren't in the same class. Just don't forget that some of us watch the sunset too."

"I lie to myself all the time. But I never believe me."
