Beautiful women Quote by Yudhanjaya Wijeratne

“Beautiful women have a following all their own. If that sounds misogynistic, I’m sorry, that’s the way the world works. Homer said the Greeks went to war over a woman. I can’t get a battle, but I can get a few hundred thousand views with the right face in a skirt.” quote by Yudhanjaya Wijeratne
