Chance Quote by Roy Cooper

“In hard times, North Carolinians have shown that we bounce back. But that's not by chance. It's because we are determined. Determined to tough it out. To help each other, and leave no one behind. Determined to turn our obstacles into opportunities.” quote by Roy Cooper — Download Open image
