Bathroom Quote by Samuel R. Delany

“The reason for privacy is not so that people will not know you go to the bathroom. It's to allow certain things to go on that you don't want other people to know about, when all is said and done. But the things I don't want other people to know about are not my sex life.” quote by Samuel R. Delany — Download Open image
