Submit: Week 289
ATTENTION: Please note that this challenge will run for two weeks, as I will be at an Anime Convention for the majority of next weekend. Had so much fun at the last one that I've decided to attend another ;)
The themes for Week 289 are as follows, you may submit two different CLAMP icons provided they each fit at least one of the challenges below. A list of series and galleries are available here for your convenience.
General: Short Hair
You must clearly feature a character or group of characters with hair cut above their shoulders. You are not allowed any other type of hair style(s) and long hair tied back in a ponytail/bun/etc does not count for this theme.
Light Textures: Mercury90

You must use one or more of the light textures shown below. You may colour, cut, crop or combine them however you wish, as well as include outside imagery and other materials, so long as it is still clear that you incoporated at least part of the provided resource.
Quote: Albert Einstein
You must use at least three consecutive words from the following quote. It is not necessary to maintain punctuation/letter casing and you may substitue alternate characters for words where appropriate (e.g. and with &). You are not allowed to incorporate any external text with the exception of tinytext/brushes that are purely decorative and not legible.
"Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow." - Albert Einstein
And remember that each icon you enter earns you one ballot for June's Submitter of the Month contest (it's your last chance to enter this month's draw) as well as a set number of cards for TCG Exchange if you choose to participate there.
Please submit your icon by uploading it to an outside host that allows direct linking, then leave a screened comment to this post with your icon, url, theme, character (object/location) and series. It is not necessary to include character/series information if doing the image challenge. Also include any additional required information and/or specific resource credits that you may have used.
