OK, I’m stuck on both of these. Hints, @bizarro , WeirdRaptor ? Before I came to live with my master, I lived deep in the forest. I was taken out from there one day and made to hold words that stay. |

That is exactly what I meant to type. So far the two clues are: "My master came to me one day, and gave to me words to keep. He left, but the words remained."
"Before I came to live with my master, I lived deep in the forest. I was taken out from there one day and made to hold words that stay."
Oh... Let's see if I can give a third without giving it away... Once I was one, before becoming scattered. Tall I stood among my kin. Now divided into many, I stare up at a world larger than I. |

Yep! You got it! "Words that stay” Hooray! Good one. The idea came to me from Jim Henson's "The Dark Crystal". 'Words that stay', the basis on my clues, was how the main character described writing to an illiterate he meets on his journey. |

Still working on @bizarro’s, but in the meantime here’s one (I didn’t come up with it; I found it on a riddles forum a year or so ago):
Adam, Bill, Charlie, and Dave line up for the same attraction. There is an attendant at the entrance. Adam hands over $1 and is admitted. Bill hands over $2 and is admitted. Charlie hands over $3.80 and is admitted. Dave has $5, but is admitted without paying anything. Why?

Hm. I like it! How does “something screams for me in a cleaner world” fit in, though? |
