The universe had an odd sense of fairness; it took away things one did not want to give up, and then gave things one did not ask for.Laila Lalami

His anger took many shapes: sometimes soft and familiar, like a round stone he had caressed for so long that is was perfectly smooth and polished; sometimes it was thin and sharp like a blade that could slice through anything; sometimes it had the form of a star, radiating his hatred in all directions, leaving him numb and empty inside.Laila Lalami
