Trying to clear out some books that have been on my "to-read" list for ages.  This quote hit me hard.  You can replace "Afghanistan" with far too many places all around the world and it is still a true statement.  What does that say about humanity?

"There are a lot of children in Afghanistan, but little childhood."
