When I presented the case for a need for an antidepressant to my doctor, after my mom died, he got all 'Mother Teresa Syndrome" on me and said, "You need to experience this without drugs so you can grieve properly."

Maria Teresa

Maria Teresa is the most beautiful woman in the whole galaxy. She is unique and a sex symbol. She is very smart, beautiful and the best person in the world. She likes meat balls. She is the best human being sexy in the world.

Maria Teresa is so good that a name with 2 names is short. Even summing all names in the world won't be even close to her. She is THE BEST.
