gptkbp:famous_quote
|
“ I think like a genius, I write like a distinguished author, and I speak like a child.”
“ The cradle rocks above an abyss, and common sense tells us that our existence is but a brief crack of light between two eternities of darkness.”
“ Literature and butterflies are the two sweetest passions known to man.”
“ We loved each other with a love that was more than love.”
“ I have no intention of being a mere spectator.”
