Alıntılar
And no matter how much the tourists provoke me, with their wool beanies and vacant eyes, I know they just want to take pretty pictures. They’re in search of beauty. I get that. Who isn’t?
Aside from that, I would like to accept my life just as it is (or the way it was before I was put on leave), and present it exactly that way to other people, if they ask, without excuses or explanations.
