Honesty Quote by Hugo Hamilton

“-Nobody can force you to smile, she says. -What? I ask. But I know she's not even talking to me, only to herself, as if she's the last person left in the room. -They can make you show your teeth, but what good is that? Nobody can make you smile against your will.” quote by Hugo Hamilton — Download Open image
