Ask questions Quote by Emma Chase
““It means everything has always been easy for you. You’re handsome, intelligent, you have a family who loves you and women who lay down for you like sacrificial lambs. And the one time you have to struggle for something you want―the one time you have to risk your heart for someone who’s finally worth it―what do you do? You give up. You shoot first and ask questions later. You curl up in a ball and wallow in self-pity.””
