A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

Ourselves

To say that we mutually agree to coercion is not to say that we are required to enjoy it, or even to pretend we enjoy it.

KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Everyone is an ocean inside. Every individual walking the street. Everyone is a universe of thoughts, and insights, and feelings. But every person is crippled in his or her own way by our inability to truly present ourselves to the world.
