“The actual, original 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,' I have vague memories of because I was pretty small, but I loved, loved, loved it. I have only those weird, visceral little-kid memories: I remember the extreme flat, two dimensional green that was their skin or the weird pizza with no sauce - it was just like yellow, drippy cheese.” LittlesTwoKidsRememberMemoriesSkinsOriginalsGreenExtremesFlatsYellowCheeseVagueTeenageLittle KidPizzaSauceTurtlesVisceralNinjaMutantsNinja TurtleTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Author:Mae Whitman
“How I Shed My Skin is, simply put, a brilliant book. While I was reading, I kept thinking two things. One, this is totally shocking. Two, it's not at all shocking, but a familiar part of my life and memory. Grimsley's narrative is straightforward and plain-spoken while at the same time achingly moving and intimately honest, and it does more to explain the South than anything I've read in a long, long time.” ThinkingLongDoeTwoBookMovingReadingMemoriesHonestLong TimeSkinsSouthBrilliantFamiliarNarrativeTwo ThingsShedShockingStraightforward Author:Josephine Humphreys

“One of the characteristics of North American culture is that you can always start again. You can always move forward, cross a border of a state or a city or a county, and move West, most of the time West. You leave behind guilt, past traditions, memories. You are as if born again, in the sense of the snake: You leave your skin behind and you begin again. For most people in the world, that is totally impossible.” PeopleIfsWorldStatesPastMovingCultureBornMemoriesCitiesBehindsImpossibleTraditionCrossesSkinsGuiltWestMoving ForwardBordersCharacteristicsSnakesAmerican CultureCountyBorn AgainBegin Again Book:Conversations with Isabel Allende Source: Conversations with Isabel Allende
