Comforting Quote by John Marsden
““I guess our fate is up to us now. And we’ve been there before, of course. There’s something quite comforting about it in a strange way. We’ve learnt a few things. We know we’ve got a few things going for us. A bit of imagination, a bit of guts sometimes, a bit of spark.””
