I read this in book when I was in 7th grade or so, it stuck to me ever since.
"'What do you want for your birthday, Rose?'
'Nothing,' I said.
'Now Rosy Pose come out of those leaves and don't be useless!' Said Michael. 'Do you seriously expect me to buy nothing, wrap up nothing, stick a gift tag on nothing, send a card saying I really hope you like your nothing, and lie awake worrying that the nothing I got you was just the right color nothing that you always wanted? Have a heart!"
_Caddy Ever After, by Hilary McKay
Take that! All you people who've told me they want "nothing"!
Peace!
