if you ask me, nobody really likes people who are always doing their duty.
Agatha Christie
Image
One is left with the horrible feeling now that war settles nothing that to win a war is as disastrous as to lose one.
Agatha Christie
Image
Never go back to a place where you have been happy. Until you do it remains alive for you. If you go back it will be destroyed.
