Amor Quote by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
““Toda a arte é agressiva, Isabella. E toda a vida de artista é uma pequena ou uma grande guerra, a começar pelo próprio e pelas suas limitações. Para chegar a alguma coisa que te proponhas é preciso primeiro a ambição e depois o talento, o conhecimento e, por fim, a oportunidade.””
