Jeanne MacKin, The Beautiful American

“That’s the problem with the finite. You can open only one door at a time, and you’ll never know what was behind the door you didn’t open.”
Jeanne MacKin, The Beautiful American

“I was happy, and nothing in the world can make you oblivious to your surroundings like happiness.”
Jeanne MacKin, The Beautiful American
