Quote by Sunjeev Sahota

“You know what the best thing is about falling out of love? It sets you free. Because when you’re in love it is everything, it is imprisoning, it is all there is, and you’d do anything, anything to keep that love. But when it withers you can suddenly see the rest of the world again, everything else floods back into the places that love had monopolised.”

“I got into an argument in class with Danny McClaren.” “You’re in class to learn from the teacher,” Big Ma said. “Not to be arguing with some know-nothing boy.” I heard myself while I retold the whole thing. It sounded silly. Big Ma never looked up once from her sewing. ... “My teacher might call.” Might as well let the other shoe drop. “Let him call. I’ll straighten him out.” Big Ma was funny, as in hard to figure out.”
