Terry Goodkind
Never let a beautiful woman pick your path for you when there is a man in her line of sight
Terry Goodkind
I felt like I'd been misplaced in the cosmos and I belonged in Maine.
Terry Goodkind
Many people believe everything others say, even though what they see with their own eyes, should be enough to tell them otherwise.
