Bad thing Quote by Jianne Carlo
““Is that a bad thing?” He angled his wineglass. “Every aspect of society today contrives to muddy our vision. To make us want things we don‟t need. Need things we don‟t want. Strip all of that away and cut to your deathbed.” He clinked their glasses together. “That‟s the essence of a life.””
