Good intentions Quote by Anthony Galouzis

“It was bad enough when the monsters were just people. Not like Jon so much—the real monstrous ones. The ones like me, but without the good intentions. The rapists, murderers, sex traffickers, pharmaceuticalists, if that’s a word, and whatnot. They’re all bad enough, but at least they’re human.” quote by Anthony Galouzis
