"It took me a long time and most of the world to learn what I know about love and fate and the choices we make, but the heart of it came to me in an instant, while I was chained to a wall and being tortured. I realised, somehow, through the screaming in my mind, that even in that shackled, bloody helplessness, I was still free: free to hate the men who were torturing me, or to forgive them. It doesn't sound much, I know. But in the flinch and bite of the chain, when it's all you've got, that freedom is a universe of possibility. And the choice you make, between hating and forgiving, can become the story of your life."
säger inte mer än så. boken är över 900 sidor lång, jag har läst 100. jag ser fram emot resten. språket, människorna, historien. gisses, det här blir strålande!
ps. jag har fått ett studentrum uppe på universitetsområdet. inflytt 1a april. nu ska här levas studentliv på riktigt. men innan dess ska helgen (med 8 personer i lägenheten) och nästa helg (med minst 5 personer i lägenheten) klaras av. man ska leva på riktigt!
