Choice Quotes

But there's no turning back. I can only go with the flow. Even if it means I'll be burned up, gone forever.

When you're out in the desert, you can't believe the amount of stars. Are you busy as a bee? Do not even have time for fun? Do your friends advise you to buy essay writing example? Do not hesitate!
