Can do Quote by Jerzy Kosinski

“The popular culture says . . . Do what you do, your life is predestined, like the installment plan on your house. There's not much you can do about it. Make your payments, live it, get sick, die, don't make any trouble. It is the Master Charge of destiny. Try to get your high credit rating.” quote by Jerzy Kosinski — Download Open image
