Nice person Quote by Bobby Underwood
““That made her smile. She said in a rush, as though she’d been wanting to say it, “It’s funny how lonely you can be when you’re with a lot of people, isn’t it? And how lonely you can be when you’re all alone. Yet when it’s just one nice person, someone with whom you instantly feel like you’ve known forever, you’re not lonely anymore, because you’re two.””
