Quote by Syed M. Masood

“Someone in a mosque once told me about the water behind people’s faces. This water, he said, changed depending on what you did and what you believed, and as you got older it began to freeze. The kind of life you led, whether your heart was full of love or joy or shrewdness or bile, all of this changed the nature of the water and, therefore, the look of your face. In this way, your face told the story of your life.”

“The worst thing about a person, in your eyes, might be the best thing about that person for them in their own lives. Their rebellion might be what kept them alive; their difficult personality might be what gave them an advantage in an oppressive family; a person's cynicism may be what kept them out of the hands of predators. We see the worst things because we don't live other people's lives. What we think is their worst, might have been their best; saving their own lives over and over again. And what's important to a life is to keep on living.”
