So we hear a lot of quotes said by people and try to relate ourselves with it. But can we make a story out of a quote? Hmm... 

Now, that requires some serious imagination and creativity. 

Well, if you like a little bit of twist then join this contest and let your creative juices flow! You have to make a story on any one of the following quotes (don't worry these are popular quotes and you must have heard of at least one):


1. You can do anything, but not everything.—David Allen

2. You must be the change you wish to see in the world.—Gandhi

3. When hungry, eat your rice; when tired, close your eyes. Fools may laugh at me, but wise men will know what I mean.—Lin-Chi

4. Everyone is a genius at least once a year. The real geniuses simply have their bright ideas closer together.—Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

5. Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.—Oscar Wilde

6. Sometimes I worry about being a success in a mediocre world.—Lily Tomlin

7. The person who reads too much and uses his brain too little will fall into lazy habits of thinking.—Albert Einstein

8. I am patient with stupidity but not with those who are proud of it.—Edith Sitwell

9. The best way to predict the future is to create it—Abraham Lincoln

10. If we wait until we're ready, we'll be waiting for the rest of our life—Lemony Snicket


Word limit: 1000 to 2500 words

Usage: You must use that quote at least once in your story as a punch line or in between talks, anything.

Requirements: If you cannot create a story based upon the quote then just use it as a line said between dialogues, but it should make sense. The title of your story should be the quote you're using.

Deadline: Since its a difficult task, the deadline is 4 weeks.

Judging: By me

Rating: G
