Quotes About Worlds

Stephanie thought about the world she'd grown up in, and how different it was from the world she'd been introduced to, and yet how similar. There was joy and happiness in both, just as there was heartbreak and horror.

Man hat einfach nicht mehr die Kraft dazu. Natürlich kommen wir irgendwann darauf zurück, um die nächste Dosis Rauschgift – oder Gift – zu konsumieren.
