Uneasy Quote by James Dashner
““...it occurred to him that maybe the world wasn't so bad after all... gradually details he hadn't noticed began to come into focus... Almost everyone looked uneasy. They all seemed to be avoiding each other-and not just to be polite. They seemed to take serious measures to stay clear of everyone else.””
