My best friend Karin for being a wonderful wonderful wonderful person, everyone else who has (had) a positive influence in my life, and I bet that if I'd start to name them all I'd forget more than I'd mention.

Jack Kerouac

 

Dorothy Parker:

Here in my heart I am Helen;
I'm Aspasia and Hero, at least.
I'm Judith, and Jael, and Madame de Stael;
I'm Salome, moon of the East.

Here in my soul I am Sappho;
Lady Hamilton am I, as well.
In me Recamier vies with Kitty O'Shea,
With Dido, and Eve, and poor Nell.

I'm of the glamorous ladies
At whose beckoning history shook.
But you are a man, and see only my pan,
So I stay at home with a book.

My aunt. I explained that in the inspiring people thread.
My grandfather. He died when I was 7. He was such a great person, I wish he lived longer. I've gone most of my life without him, but I still think about him a lot. We talk about him a lot in my family, but it's not the same as seeing him.
