This is an excellent collection of quotes, many I've not seen before.
The one that jumped out at me was:
Ruth Graham, Billy Graham’s wife, was once asked whether she and Dr. Graham ever disagreed. She replied, “Of course we do. If we didn’t, one of us would be unnecessary.”
-Ruth Graham
Good job.

Excellent! A warrior rides up, gets invited home for the evening meal, is invited to stay and help, refuses, and then the bad guys ride up and the warrior takes them all out. HERO. I really enjoyed reading this. The verses were good. Rhymed okay. And above all, the poem told a story. A good story.
Keep writing.

Good story, interesting and entertaining. The dialogue is good, realistic and beleiveable. The characters are well developed, especially the main character. The story seems to flow from one paragraph to the next without any dead spots. Good job. Keep writing.

This short kind of leaves the reader to make asumptions. I think she is dying and the relief is a short which puts her out and also kills her. Well written and entertaining.

This is obvously a true story about missing someone. It is implied but vague in this respect, that they broke up. Interesting and entertaining. Keep up the good work. Keep writing.

You wanted to be wanted
By someone who cared for you
I couldn’t do it the job wasn’t for me
Yet another will come wanting the same
Maybe this time it won’t be a tragedy
Which is about wanting to be wanted. Good job keeo writing..

Although this is a rant, it is excellent in concept. The last part of this narrative end like this: Regardless of your individual political stance, this country will be a better place for everyone if we resolve to educate ourselves, and base our opinions on facts and experience, and refrain from resorting to the crudest and most ignorant methods of expressing ourselves.
These are words to live by.
Good job. Keep writing.

After releasing where he was, ...This should be realizing where he was.
infinately for the worse... should be infinitely
This is basically a good story, the start of a possible novel. As referenced above, spelling could be an issue.
Interesting and entertaining. Keep writing.

The first poem is so full of truth. When taking drugs, no one can predict the outcome to the children or for that matter how many generations it will affect. This was a well written poem. And sad byut true.

This is the most complete description I've read that a writer has posted on this site. It seemed sincere and honest. It listed likes and dislikes, favorite movies, books, and things to do. It gave a description of the writer. All in all, it was just very detailed and complete.

Okay, okay....talking animals. Oh, I enjoyed this story immensely. And after reading it I found the lions and the elephants had one thing in common ...they all thought it was bulls*&%.

I enjoyed reading this interesting piece and I really liked this part: Suddenly, I heard footsteps, and just as my eyes began to adjust to the dim light seeping through the crack below the door, I was blinded by the light coming from the hall. He opened the door with such a force, that I was knocked off balance in surprise.
“I found you!” he growled, and I cowered in the corner, helpless in his trap.
Keep up the good work.

I just liked this immensely. For one thing, it speaks of honor. The king may have won, but did he really? Another thing, this writing tells a story. I like stories set to verse. Especially stories that have such noble bearings. Keep on writing. Good job.

Excellent shopping adventure. This piece was well written and entertaining. I noticed a word or two that was either mis-spelled or just a typo. Couldn't tell for sure. Good job. Keep writing.

Hey, this was a pretty good poem. It was interesting and entertaining because it told a story. It was a little vague but it did give enough information for the reader to guess why the love was forbidden. Good job. Keep writing.

Neat story. Another little twist at the end, when the whatever it is extended its stinger. I thought that was a little vague, but the story stands alone and is great. Interesting and entertaining. Keep on writing.

Kind of had a surprise ending for me. This story was interesting and a real page turner. (scroller) It was entertaining and the sentry was quite a character.
This writer has shown his creative talents can show up in several different genres. Keep up the good work.

I like this kind of forum where people from all walks of life can post their own "Simple Pleasures" and then we, the reader, can look them over, put them in our mouth, roll them over our tongue, and see how they taste and feel. LOL

Nice little story. Interesting and entertaining. However, spelling, typos, are terrible.
Look at this sentence: What is it? When evr something happens
evr should be "ever"
Look at part of last line: as i am thinking about something that i lost was the reason i found something truly great.
Anytime "i" is used it should be capitalized. "I" ALWAYS.

Not a single line break in the whole story. How do you distinguish when one person starts and ends their speaking. I took a part of your story and put in line breaks to show you by example:
“Mom, guess what happened today!” Sam said as he dropped his bag on the floor.
“What?” I asked.
“Kyle brought his snake in for show and tell.”
Sam was so excited about the snake that he was barely able to eat the snack I had prepared. This was my favorite time of day. He would tell me all about his day and I would check him over, always afraid of some new bump or bruise. Kindergarten could be really rough.
“Was the snake in a cage?” I asked as I poured some more milk.
“Yes but he took it out. I got to touch it. It was really smooth. Mom, can I get a snake?”
Do all parents go through this? I hated snakes but I also knew we couldn’t afford any kind of pet.
“Sam, we’ve talked about this. We can’t afford any pets, just yet.”
“But Mom, it would be in a cage and it wouldn’t eat very much.”
CAN you see the difference? Makes it easier to read. The dialogue is really good and realistic in this story. But with it all jumbled together you can't really tell who is saying what.

This story is totally awesome, especially with so many different characters and so many different powers. I was mesmerized when reading through the descriptions of the various characters. With this many different writers involved I was mildly surprised to find the dialogue throughout so good, believable and realistic. This is really a good story.
