Book cover for A Calculated Life
I haven’t lived enough. My character is just the combination of my intellect and my faults. I haven’t had time to become more complex, more interesting.

“Weakness is treating someone as though they belong to you. Strength is knowing that everyone belongs to themselves.”
Yaa Gyasi, Homegoing

Yaa Gyasi
“We believe the one who has the power. He is the one who gets to write the story. So when you study history, you must always ask yourself, Whose story am I missing? Whose voice was suppressed so that this voice could come forth? Once you have figured that out, you must find that story too. From there, you begin to get a clearer, yet still imperfect, picture.”
Yaa Gyasi, Homegoing
