Dana’s Quotes

“The world would be a much more interesting place if everyone was given a chance to meet their ancestors at least for an hour in their lifetime.”
― Elif Shafak, There Are Rivers in the Sky

“There are extraordinary people who appear unexpectedly on our paths, and, just as suddenly, they disappear, leaving their indelible marks and a sense of regret. Brief and bright, like a match striking a flame in the dark, they heat the damp kindling of our hearts and then they are gone.”
― Elif Shafak, There Are Rivers in the Sky

“...the fanatics who slaughter the innocent and defenseless, pillaging villages, enslaving women and children, believe themselves to be holy. With every sorrow and suffering they rain on other humans, they expect to earn favor in the eyes of God, move closer to completing the bridge from this world to their exclusive paradise. How can anyone assume they will please the Creator by hurting His Creation?”
― Elif Shafak, There Are Rivers in the Sky
