I'm a curvy girl, and I'm a real girl.
There's nothing as real as money.
My music lives because of real players.
I don't like listening to music that isn't real.
My mom knows when something is real and something is not.
Reality is wrong. Dreams are for the real.
Danger is real, fear is a choice
My real last name is Galifianakisburg.
Do people ever climb the demon towers? Like, for any reason?" Aline looked up. "Climb the demon towers?" She laughed. "No, no one ever does that. It's totally illegal, for one thing, and besides, why would you want to?" Aline, Isabelle thought, did n...
... there is no quicker way of growing old than undue indulgence in regular habits. Indeed it seems probable that the reason why so many people die sooner than they should is because they have organised their lives in such a way that there is nothing...
Skepticism is thus a resting-place for human reason, where it can reflect upon its dogmatic wanderings and make survey of the region in which it finds itself, so that for the future it may be able to choose its path with more certainty. But it is no ...
