Another year Quote by Paul Auster

“I've been asked several times over the years to become president, and I've always said no, because I didn't want to give up all the time from my work. The position won't be open for another year, but if they still want me then, I'll do it; I'll speak out as often as I can from that platform.” quote by Paul Auster — Download Open image
