i cannot talk about this book without tearing up.
“There is only one sin. and that is theft... when you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth.”
“It may be unfair, but what happens in a few days, sometimes even a single day, can change the course of a whole lifetime.”
“There are a lot of children in Afghanistan, but little childhood.”
"Children aren't coloring books. You don't get to fill them with your favorite colors."
“Time can be a greedy thing-sometimes it steals the details for itself.”
“I'm so afraid. Because I'm so profoundly happy. Happiness like this is frightening...They only let you this happy if they're preparing to take something from you.”
