Art Quote by J.R. Ward
““Holy hell, the Grim Reaper was no makeup artist; that was for sure. Even Goths had better complexions. “Hey, don’t be harshing on my peeps,” Adrian cut in. “I’d do one of us way before some SoCal bimbo with plastic melons and a spray tan.” “Stop reading my mind, motherfucker. And you’d do the bimbo anyway.” Adrian grinned and flexed his heavy arms. “Yeah. I would. And her sister.””
