Charles de Lint Quote
It's my diary, she'd explained. Every mark I've had drawn on my skin connects me to where and who I've been- so I never forget who I am and how I got here.There was humour in the smile she offered him. And you know what the real beauty of it is? Hank had shaken his head. Nobody can take it away.
