Blood relatives Quote by Nancy Farmer

“I think that people have an instinct for a family. You look until you find a mother, a father, a sister, a brother. They don't have to be blood relatives. They just have to love you. And when you find them, you don't have to look anymore.” quote by Nancy Farmer — Download Open image
