تتساءل لماذا يتحمّل الناس كل ذلك، لأنهم اعتادوا على ذلك. و لم يعد بإمكانهم أن يروا إمكانية أن تكون الأشياء مختلفة. ما يفاجئني ليس الكم الكثير الذي يطلبه الناس، بل القليل الذي يطلبونه.

He died at the wrong time, when there was much to be clarified and established. They hadn’t even started to be grown-ups together. There was this piece of heaven, this little girl he’d carried around the shop on his shoulders; and then one day she was gone, replaced by a foreigner, an uncooperative woman he didn’t know how to speak to. Being so confused, so weak, so in love, he chose strength and drove her away from himself. The last years he spent wondering where she’d gone, and slowly came to realise that she would never return, and that the husband he’d chosen for her was an idiot.

Watching Jamila sometimes made me think the world was divided into three sorts of people: those who knew what they wanted to do; those (the unhappiest) who never knew what their purpose in life was; and those who found out later on. I was in the last category, I reckoned, which didn't stop me wishing I'd been born into the first.
