A stick, a stone, a broken bone and a fallen word by the wayside

A stray phrase. It may not have much meaning to most people, but it may change the life of someone forever. Make your impression on the world today! Write something.

The human psyche works in strange ways. Just like how a song can stay in the head for no apparent reason, a single line of text (spoken or otherwise) may become someone's life motto. With great power...whatever. So this is a bit like what one might learn in Chaos Theory and stuff. Perhaps Hitler became what he was only because of a single phrase. Then again, maybe not. Just speculation, of course. The best part about speculating like this is that it's nearly impossible to prove that theory wrong. Hence, there would actually be some chance that I am right. Wow. Anyway, I was just wondering about how my insignificant writings would turn out before they faded into obscurity forever. Would someone pick them up and never credit them? Would they be quoted into eternity? Immortality through words so that the author may retire.
