Japanese Quote by Melina Marchetta

“Japan." Not about the Japanese, but about moments of perfection. Commit it to memory and make good use of it. Because if I come home and you're still pining over this little girl without having given her a chance, I will call you a chicken shit for the rest of your life.” quote by Melina Marchetta — Download Open image
