Destiny Quote by Tom Spanbauer
““That's when you stop being one way and start being another, Ruby said. Not something many people can do, or want to do. In fact, Ruby said, The only people who cross over, cross over because they're on some kind of Mission Impossible. I could no longer live and stay the way I was, I said.””
