Better world Quote by Megan McCafferty
““I pray that it will be different when they're our age. I pray for a cure to the Virus so they can choose not to share their bodies before they're ready. I pray that they will have the power to choose when and how they will marry, make love, make babies. And I pray that they will not be judged if they choose not to do those things in the "right" order… My sister and I close our eyes. We dream of a better world. We imagine what we can - and will - do to make it possible.””
