Beau

A number of quotes i've come to enjoy reading... You may not enjoy them. You may not even read them. But to me reading them sparked a thought, an intention, a feeling, a severe questioning on why people can come to certain realisations, and more importantly, what made them arrive there.
Or they made me laugh.
I'm Beau by the way.
