Eve Quotes

Joan Jett

Another, Wanted, Last

David Cameron

Peace, Christmas, Famous

It's said that All Hallows' Eve is one of the nights when the veil between the worlds is thin - and whether you believe in such things or not, those roaming spirits probably believe in you, or at least acknowledge your existence, considering that it used to be their own.

Erin Morgenstern

Different, Said, Between
