Facts Quote by David Eddings

“I'm hungry, Garion, and I don't think well when I'm hungry." "That might explain a lot," Beldin noted blandly. "We should have fed you more often when you were younger." "You can be terribly offensive sometimes, do you know that?" "Why, yes, as a matter of fact I do.” quote by David Eddings
