Quote by Lynn Painter

“Do you know how many 12:13s I've watched pass without you? Tonight it'll be the seven hundred and twentieth," I said, the words burning my throat. "The last thing in the world I want is to say something that makes that number infinite, but I also can't let you erase our history. I don't want to remember the bad parts, but I refuse to forget the good.”

“Qandeel’s neighbour in Shah Sadar Din recalls a night, perhaps during that visit, when Qandeel appeared at his house, sweating, panting. Her brother Arif, a pisto gripped tightly in his hand, was threatening to kill her. ‘I had no idea what had happened,’ he recalls. ‘Qandeel had come there with a driver and she took off. After she left the village, her parents had told us all she was working at some mill.’ She did not want to come back to Shah Sadar Din after that quarrel with her brother. She found this house in Multan and told her parents that she would meet them here once a year.”

“Five days after the world found out that her name was Fouzia Azeem, Qandeel received a legal notice from Fayyaz Leghari, a lawyer in Gadai, a town 20 kilometres from Shah Sadar Din. He wanted her to stop using ‘Baloch’ as her surname or claim to be a Baloch woman. ‘You have no relation (sic) with any Baloch family or tribe,’ Leghari wrote.”

“To summarize, the model I created was a revision of Bloom’s Taxonomy. Usually, in the 2000’s, it was common for people to use a pyramid to represent Bloom’s Taxonomy, with “remember” at the base, and “synthesize” at the shortest part, or the top. This was a good model for determining the attainability of each skill and the levels each skill is at, but I decided to use the umbrellas to add stronger emphasis on how each skill depended on and impacted one another. I did not think that the pyramid modeled this dependency and impact well, because it did not visually show how each skill overlapped one another; it merely showed the levels of each skill, not how each skill depended on and impacted one another.”
