That's when Paris smells its sweetest. It's the damp chestnut trees.

Ricorda, se hai bisogno di una mano la troverai alla fine del tuo braccio. Remember, if you need a hand you'll find it at the end of your arm.

Paris is always a good idea.

If I'm honest I have to tell you I still read fairy-tales and I like them best of all.

As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
Audrey Hepburn
Image
Your heart just breaks, that's all. But you can't judge or point fingers. You just have to be lucky enough to find someone who appreciates you.
