Mother Quotes

Most people who live at the border or are familiar with the border know that a Berlin-like wall stretching from San Diego to Brownsville is not necessary. And the costs would be prohibitive.

Or if you do pass through it, you are easily detected.

And their romance was a very dear and true and deep romance.
