“— Por que você sempre ouve essas coisas velhas? — Para com isso! Tupac era o melhor. — É, o melhor vinte anos atrás. — Que nada, mesmo agora. Ouve só isso. — Ele aponta para mim, o que quer dizer que vai entrar em um dos momentos filosóficos de Khalil. — ’Pac disse que Thug Life, “vida bandida”, queria dizer The Hate U Give Little Infants Fucks Everybody, ou “o ódio que você passa pras criancinhas fode com todo mundo”. Eu levanto as sobrancelhas mais uma vez. — Como é? — Escuta! Presta atenção nas iniciais. The Hate U Give Little Infants Fucks Everybody. T-H-U-G-L-I-F-E. Isso quer dizer que o ódio que a sociedade nos dá quando somos pequenos morde a bunda dela quando crescemos e ficamos doidos. Entendeu?”

“Its wings flicker white, and in the brief soar between roof and pump, the sun catches in its feathers, revealing rainbows floating atop the black and blue fibers. The colors roll down its body like the muscle in a great predator’s shoulders, and yet the lift of its wings and kite-like flicker of its long tail are lighter than air.”

“In Hebrew, the word Sabbath means “rest.” The purpose of the Sabbath dates back to the Creation of the world, when after six days of labor the Lord rested from the work of creation. When He later revealed the Ten Commandments to Moses, God commanded that we “remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.” Later, the Sabbath was observed as a reminder of the deliverance of Israel from their bondage in Egypt. Perhaps most important, the Sabbath was given as a perpetual covenant, a constant reminder that the Lord may sanctify His people. In addition, we now partake of the sacrament on the Sabbath day in remembrance of the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Again, we covenant that we are willing to take upon us His holy name.”
