More quotes by David Malouf
I knew that the world around you is only uninteresting if you can't see what is really going on. The place you come from is always the most exotic place you'll ever encounter because it is the only place where you recognise how many secrets and mysteries there are in people's lives
David Malouf

David Malouf

David Malouf

David Malouf

David Malouf
