Some day this pain will be useful to you.
Sayfa 307
You know what I've been thinking since? I've been thinking that you are my country. Is that a strange thing to say? Without you, I don't have a home in this world; I am a felled tree, my roots severed all round; you can topple me with the touch of a finger.
Sayfa 183
you are young and the young are impatient. They can’t wait for school to be over and life to begin. But let me tell you a secret: it already has! This is what life is. Boredom, frustration, trying to get out of things, longing for something better.
Sayfa 175

Sayfa 112
When you leave your home for unknown shores, you don’t simply carry on as before; a part of you dies inside so that another part can start all over again

Sayfa 55

Sayfa 18
But nothing they did or said could be worse than her hatred for herself just then.
Sayfa 18
It will have blood: They say blood will have blood.
Stones have been known to move and trees to speak. -Macbeth
