General suggestion: Use a line or the whole quote as part of the dialogue
Example 01 (Prompt used: Peter Pan quote)
One of the relatively easier plots to get out of this prompt is a story about how two people are being separated from each other for a long period of time. Whether it is a personal decision or one that has been made by another person but affects them nonetheless is up to you. The idea of parting, whether permanently or temporarily, should play a big role in the story and whether they will reunite or not is up to you.
Example 02 (Prompt used: "I'm like a butterfly; pretty to look at, hard to catch.")
A story you can write using this prompt is one about a character who is a manifestation of the quote - pretty to look at but hard to catch. You can take on the point of view of a character who is attracted to that person but knows that winning that person's heart won't be easy because the latter is playing hard to get.
