Quote by NZ Kaminsky

“Get cozy with your sorrow, Cuddle with your grief. Float with your fears, And melt within your anger. Stroll through your frustrations, Your disappointments, And your regrets. Dive into your doubts, Your powerlessness, Your hopelessness. Surrender.”

“Grief is an aspect of love, a reflection of the ability to connect. As the heart can grow bigger to allow more love, it can also do so for grief. I don't want any more of my patients to die, but I know that they will. And although I don't want more grief in my life, I know that the connections that permit grief to occur are the connections that keep us -- doctors and patients -- alive.”

“It's the whistling," Laila said to Tariq, "the damn whistling, I hate more than anything." Often it happened at dinner, when she and Babi were at the table. When it started, their heads snapped up. They listened to the whistling, forks in midair, unchewed food in their mouths. Laila saw the reflection of their half-lit faces in the pitch-black window, their shadows unmoving on the wall. The whistling. Then the blast, blissfully elsewhere, followed by an expulsion of breath and the knowledge that they had been spared for now while somewhere else, amid cries and choking clouds of smoke, there was a scrambling, a bare-handed frenzy of digging, of pulling from the debris, what remained of a sister, a brother, a grandchild. But the flip side of being spared was the agony of wondering who hadn't.”
