"This book was compelling in so many ways, an eye opener to Afghanistan and the people who live there. The story is sad and to find out that Amir is the uncle to Hassan's son because they are brothers was a huge shock. Overall a very simple, but beautiful read. A journey of a man and his past mistakes." — Apr 30, 2014 09:58AM

"So far throughout the autobiography I have discovered what it means to become a politician through Edward Koch. In the chapters that I have read Koch has gone from a nobody to mayor of New York. Various people stand in his way of making New York the greatest city on earth, but Koch is determined to achieve his goal." — Feb 26, 2014 09:50AM

Chris’s Quotes

“A man is born into this world with only a tiny spark of goodness in him. The spark is God, it is the soul; the rest is ugliness and evil, a shell. The spark must be guarded like a treasure, it must be nurtured, it must be fanned into flame. It must learn to seek out other sparks, it must dominate the shell. Anything can be a shell, Reuven. Anything. Indifference, laziness, brutality, and genius. Yes, even a great mind can be a shell and choke the spark.”
― Chaim Potok, The Chosen
