“Our lives are not our own. We are bound to others, past and present, and by each crime and every kindness, we birth our future.”
“Belief, like fear or love, is a force to be understood as we understand the theory of relativity and principles of uncertainty. Phenomena that determine the course of our lives. Yesterday, my life was headed in one direction. Today, it is headed in another. Yesterday, I believed I would never have done what I did today. These forces that often remake time and space, that can shape and alter who we imagine ourselves to be, begin long before we are born and continue after we perish.”
“Truth is singular. Its ‘versions’ are mistruths.”
“Our lives are not our own. From womb to tomb, we are bound to others, past and present, and by each crime and every kindness, we birth our future.”
“What is an ocean, but a multitude of drops?”
“A half-read book is a half-finished love affair.”
“I believe there is another world waiting for us. A better world. And I’ll be waiting for you there.”
“Knowledge is a mirror, and for the first time in my life, I was allowed to see who I was and who I might become.”
“Prejudice is the child of ignorance.”
“The weak are meat, and the strong do eat.”
“I will not be subjected to criminal abuse.”
“The nature of our immortal lives is in the consequences of our words and deeds, that go on and are pushing themselves throughout all time.”
“Our lives are not our own. We are bound to others, past and present, and by each crime and every kindness, we birth our future.”
“Fear, belief, love—phenomena that determine the course of our lives. These forces begin long before we are born and continue after we perish.”
“Souls cross ages like clouds cross skies, an’ tho’ a cloud’s shape nor hue nor size don’t stay the same, it’s still a cloud an’ so is a soul. Who can say where the cloud’s blowed from or who the soul’ll be ‘morrow? Only Sonmi the east an’ the west an’ the compass an’ the atlas, yay, only the atlas o’ clouds.”
