Will Sheff Quotes
Everybody has had the experience of something they love – whether it's a pop song or a painting or a movie – feeling so perfect to them that it's almost like it came from another planet.

Between 1868 and 1881 they would kill thirty-one million buffalo, stripping the plains almost entirely of the huge, lumbering creatures and destroying any last small hope that any horse tribe could ever be restored to its traditional life.
