“We were naïvely full of dreams and hope then, blessedly unaware that we were the world's rubbish, left to tread in its own misery and excrement.” (Abulhawa 174)

There's More To Life Than A Little Money, You Know... And Here Ya' Are, And It's A Beautiful Day.” - Marge Gunderson “Fargo” (1996)

“If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. ... But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no such hurry.” (Hemingway 249)

I was skeptical of the belief that this was a contender to Anna Karenina as the best novel ever written. Now, I'm almost convinced it's better.
