Can I quote you on that?

Since this is new for me, I am going to introduce myself.  I write children's stories that I ummm, have not yet published.  I also write for my own personal blog and I started making my own quote photos to use for my blog's Facebook page in order to inspire those around me.  I want you to look at the quotes I post and write a story that might have inspired the quote, or use it to make the type of character that evokes those feelings when you read it.  Be inspired:

Planting a Moral...

Definition of Moral:  

n.

1. The lesson or principle contained in or taught by a fable, a story, or an event.

2. A concisely expressed precept or general truth; a maxim.

Feel free to employ this profound sentiment of Albert Einstein's or any other moral that impresses upon you in your piece of Friday Flashy Fiction today. 

Happy writing!

"In his lecture at Einstein's memorial, nuclear physicist Robert Oppenheimer summarized his impression of him as a person: "He was almost wholly without sophistication and wholly without worldliness . . . There was always with him a wonderful purity at once childlike and profoundly stubborn, (wiki commons)."

Maybe write a dialogue with Einstein as a participant...or if you could ask Albert something what would it be...?

Happy Friday Flashy Fiction writing!

or from "Scarface" - "Say 'ello to my lil' friend!"

or from "Dracula" - "Listen to them. Children of the night. What music they make."
