Paula’s Quotes

“My faith is what they bury when they force me to expose it.”

“She leaves the spoon and takes my face in her hands. They're warm and smell devine. She holds me, whispering, "God help him understand you are still a child. God give you health and prosperity. God release you from all you wish to be released from." I shut my eyes and hope she never releases me.”
― Uzma Aslam Khan, The Geometry of God

“How secure is a forty-year-old state? I remember the garrison towns of the Punjab plains, the fenced-off lands, the young soldiers, and I have my answer. To a republic, forty is infancy. And this is its horror, as it carves itself from ancient land, ancient water.”
― Uzma Aslam Khan, The Geometry of God
