Ambiguity Quote by Rhian J. Martin

“It was all very isolating to think about, what people use to define themselves and their actions. And at the end of the day, did it make people feel better? Maybe it did. Maybe it gave them something to grasp at in the ambiguous vein of life on Earth.” quote by Rhian J. Martin — Download Open image
