"...just be careful not to get the facts mixed up with the truth."- Maniac Magee quote
“You be you and I'll be me, today and today and today, and let's trust the future to tomorrow. Let the stars keep track of us. Let us ride our own orbits and trust that they will meet. May our reunion be not a finding but a sweet collision of destinies! Love and Love and Love Again, Stargirl.” - Love, Stargirl
“She was illusive. She was today. She was tomorrow. She was the faintest scent of a cactus flower, the flitting shadow

but the pin merely went through and away she flew.” - Stargirl
"He did not want to be a wringer. This was one of the first things he had learned about himself. He could not have said exactly when he learned it, but it was very early. And more than early, it was deep inside. In the stomach like hunger." - Wringer
