Animals Quote by Wilbur Smith

“I'm not perfect and I know it. I've done all sorts of things that are frowned upon these days - big-game hunting, fishing. I still enjoy fishing but I don't kill warm-blooded animals any more - I make an exception with birds sometimes.” quote by Wilbur Smith — Download Open image
