“At once, I felt both part of something historic and very alone. Would my family even comprehend it all when I explained it to them? Or would they just fixate on the fact that I’d almost died…”

“It was cool in the terminal, but I felt the heat of social pressure.”

"فهو من حيث دبر الأمور حكم..
و من حيث أوجدها جواد..
و من حيث رتبها مصوّر..
و من حيث وضع كل شيء في موضعه عَدْل..

“She would never say, Love your dress, if she fucking hated your dress. She would never say, How are you? if she didn’t care how you were. She would never eat a lavender cupcake that tasted like perfume or wear a perfume that made her smell like a cupcake.”

"إن كان قضاء يوماً على سطح القمر يعادل قضاء شهراً كاملاً على سطح الأرض؛ فأيام الحداد تعادل عمر الكون بأكمله، يظل وقعها الثقيل في النفس و غصتها في الحلق و مرارتها في القلب أبد الآبدين."

All them grand thinkers lost to the whip. Gone and took they secrets with ’em to the grave.”
