Ilona Andrews Quote

A wise man once said, A human mind is the place where emotion and reason are locked in perpetual combat. Sadly for our species, emotion always wins. I really liked that quote. It explained why, even though I was reasonably intelligent, I kept finding myself doing something really stupid. And it sounded much better than Nevada Baylor, Total Idiot.
