Quote by Antonio Gómez Rufo

“Bruno Weiß vond getallen steeds afschuwelijker, als waren ze zijn grootste vijanden. Letters daarentegen bevielen hem omdat ze woorden vormden, woorden zinnen, en zinnen bevatten ideeën, dromen, lessen en landschappen. Getallen daarentegen speelden vals, bedrogen, lieten zich niet beheersen en waren stijfkoppig en koud, te koud, net als de Oostenrijkse winters.”

“I feel like being run over by a train: how couldn't I see, or care? I have much more than I need when it comes to material things as well as opportunities. I can basically do everything I want. Sure, my parents can still tell me where to go or what to do, but they don‟t impose their views on me. They will never marry me off. They will never forbid me to go to school. They will always do their best to make sure I‟ll be happy, healthy and safe. And what have I done to deserve all this? Absolutely nothing. It was a chance of luck, and that makes me responsible toward those who have not been as lucky as me.”

“My life has always been so easy. Everything here is so simple. Problems are not really problems. I‟ve never felt cornered, hurt or threatened in my whole life. If someone would abuse me, or scare me, like a bully, I could always get the help of a parent or a teacher, or even the police. I admire Basya so much. I don‟t know how she can be so strong, then I realize she has no choice. The alternative is giving up, and she‟ll never give up. She could stop her education like her friend Silsila”
