Jacques Roumain Quotes
A tree is made to live in peace in the color of day and in friendship with the sun, the wind and the rain.

When you look at a city, you know, it looks so unique. You feel this kind of uniqueness, you know, and especially if you go from a big city to a small city or if you go from one country to another.
