Quote by Dalia Taha

“It took the world 197,000 years to make me. My dna formed leisurely across centuries, like a slow-cooked meal. My nose preceded me into the world, as did my hands, my short temper, the locks of my hair, my thirst for poetry and books, how quickly I grow bored, and my struggle to fall in love. My peculiar mind must have inhabited another woman’s body before I came around. I have sailed from eternity to the world of questions: my consciousness in one hand, and my fear in another.”

“She's unbearable sometimes, yes. But she's not trying to be cruel. She's scared she isn't supposed to be here. She's scared everyone wishes she were her brother, and she's scared she'll be sent home if she steps even slightly out of line. Above all, she's scared that either of you might go down Lincoln's path. Go easy other, you two. You don't know how much of her behaviour is dictated by fear.”
