Quote by Juan Rulfo

“Estas pláticas que yo tengo con mi conciencia son a veces muy largas, duran días enteros; por eso no resulta que me ponga a contártelas en esta pobre carta. De verdad, cuídate mucho, come y duerme bien y sueña con los angelitos y no en esta cosa maligna que soy yo. Pero no me olvides.” quote by Juan Rulfo — Download Open image
