"When phobia starts to build up in the psyche of thinking humanity against a part of its own kind, there is nothing more primordial and gruesome than that, especially when we are talking about a species that is supposedly the most intelligent one on Earth. Phobias recorded in DSM do not make a person lesser human, but Islamophobia does indeed define whether a person is really a thinking and sentient sapiens or an ignorant caveman."
"No human being, when you understand his desires, is worthless. No one's life is nothing. Even the most evil of men and women, if you understand their hearts, had some generous act that redeems them, at least a little, from their sins."

It runs through all our folklore, all human religions, all our literature--a racial conviction that when one human needs rescue, others should not count the price."
"We donot qualify as humans going by our acts, but we surely prove through our vulnerability and sufferings!"
"Kindness: It's ours to share."

"In the middle section of the book Mirabelle breaks into not one, but two houses near Belgravia Books. I had fun scoping these out - checking which windows looked least secure and figuring out how to scale the mews houses to the rear to get her inside. A man came out at one point, 'What are you doing?' he questioned me. 'The thing is, I'm writing a book,' I started with a smile. He waved me off, his hand as wide as a tennis racket. 'Everyone is writing a book, my dear,' he said. Between you and I, it's his house that MIrabelle ends up breaking into."
"I'm very aware we are the first generation ever to have such incredible opportunities to express ourselves publicly to a worldwide audience."
"Maria didn't fear the sea but, as taught by her father, she respected its power. In her experience the ocean had no intent to drown travellers."
