Chance Quote by Daniel Wallace
““Beneath one facade there’s another facade and then another, and beneath that the aching dark place, his life, something that neither of us understands. All I can say is, “One more chance. I’ll give you one more chance and then I’m leaving, I’m going, and I don’t know if I’m coming back. I’m not going to be your straight man anymore.” And””
