&quot;Love is as much of an object as an obsession, everybody wants it, everybody seeks it, but few ever achieve it, those who do will cherish it, be lost in it, and among all, never... never forget it.&quot; -Curtis Judalet

VERY interesting with a fun sense of humor. This author's writing ideas are great and will hopefully expand to even more creations in his next chapters.
