Life Quote by Anonymous
“The world is like a waiting room in a railway station; it is not your house. You are not going to remain in the waiting room forever. Nothing in the waiting room belongs to you. The furniture, the paintings on the wall …You use them you see the painting, you sit on the chair, you rest on the bed but nothing belongs to you.”
