Absolutely Quote by Mike Nichols

“There are absolutely almost perfect people who experience no guilt; they don't know what it is. They simply do what they need to do - or want to do - next. They see nothing wrong with it. They feel no guilt. They express no guilt. And it's not even certain what harm they do.” quote by Mike Nichols — Download Open image
