Nia Quotes

“But I can’t leave, not yet. I’ll stay with her until sunrise. If I brace my feet, I won’t slide. I can rest my cheek on the roof tile and still see her. Pacing. Pulling her hair.

“I’ll fix you,” I tell her. “I promise.”

Even though I don’t know how.
It’s better than good-bye.”
― Pam Bachorz, Candor

― Pam Bachorz, Candor

“It's like when I first saw you at the Diabetic. I went up to you, but really you made the first move."
"Shut up!" She remains unconvinced. "How?"
I don't answer. I sit still. Then I look at her slyly out of the corner of my eye, before looking away. I look at her again, for longer this time, then drop my eyes. For my final look I stare, and bat my eyelashes provocatively.
I must do a good job because Nia laughs. It feels goo to know I can do that.

“Marafiki wanaweza kukupotosha bila wao wenyewe kujua na bila kuwa na nia mbaya ya aina yoyote ile; na wanaweza kuwa washauri wazuri kwa sababu wanakujua vizuri unapokuwa na huzuni, na wanakujua vizuri unapokuwa na furaha pia. Kwa mfano; rafiki yako anaweza kukushauri kusomea uhasibu wakati Mungu amekupangia utawala, au anaweza kujua aongee na wewe wakati gani kulingana na tabia yako ya kubadilikabadilika. Maadui wanasaidia kujua kipaji ulichopewa na Mungu – ukifanya kitu ambacho si cha kawaida katika maisha yako halafu ukawa na maadui ujue hicho ndicho Mungu alichokupangia kufanya, hivyo usikate tamaa – na mashabiki wanasaidia kufanya kipaji chako kiwe na uhai.”
