Kandise’s Quotes

“Here you go on this long long dream. Don't even try to wake up. Just let it go on until it is over. You will learn many things.

Don't scream or cry, don't run to him and throw yourself at his feet, pleading for him to take you in his arms, don't strip off your clothes and run naked to the water, wild with wanting.”
― Francesca Lia Block
