<div>My inspiring quote/story &#8220;No matter how cool we try and be, no matter how much we try and seperate ourselves from the world with attitude, we all know we are soft inside. We are people who yearn to love, and to be loved. It is art that reminds us that that is a possibility. It&#8217;s music, television, radio, movies, plays and books that remind us that we are people that want to be loved.&#8221; Stephen Fry. </div>
