Quote by Eimear McBride

“Being young you have not yet known the fool’s triumph nor yet nor yet love being lost as soon as won. No. That’s wrong. Only won here. Not lost at all. And dread? Won’t any more. For bound to him is what’s to bind and as for crying? For the wind.” quote by Eimear McBride — Download Open image
