"Money is not power. Never has been. True, it helps people get there, but real power is the monuments built to your name, not the paper in your wallet. Real power is how many people write about you, how many would jump in front of a bullet for you, how many would cry at your goddamn funeral, how many would toil endlessly just for you and you alone. Not all powerful people are rich, not all rich people are powerful. Money is sand, it runs through your fingers and leaves you standing there with nothing. Power cannot be tangible and if it ever becomes so, it will lose its own sense of definition."

Can You Keep A Secret? (The Outsiders Fan Fiction)
"You lied to me," He insinuated. I felt my heart leap to my throat, this can't be happening. "It was a mistake, everyone makes mistakes," my voice dropped. "Yes, but you make more than most people." "I-" "You hurt me; you worry everyone, everyone you get close to you hurt. Ever since Ma and Pa died you've been nothing but inconsiderate to everyone else. You hurt all of us with your lies." "Not on purpose," I whispered, "I never wanted to hurt you, I only wanted to-" Soda put his hands up to silence me. "Rosey-" "Please don't do this, Soda, I care about him." I heard panic tinging my own voice. He said nothing. ----------- Friends are the family you can choose, but sometimes, those friends are more like lovers than family.
