Hm,
Print a page full of quotes, and perhaps practice essays, and sort of stick them in to the dictionary? As if they were another page
Wouldn't seem all that suspicious either

I'd rather not live with the guilt or risk losing a lot off my ATAR...

“We are all alone, born alone, die alone, we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely -- at least, not all the time -- but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don't see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness.”
