“I wish I could recommend the experience of not being killed to everyone.”
“Because I wished for everyone to live, I did everything I could.”
“How I wish I could hug everyone and tell them that it's okay. It's okay to be scared and angry and hurt and selfish. It's part of being human,”
“I wish I could remember it. I wish I had a memory of that first violent shove, the shock of cold air, the sting of oxygen into new lungs. Everyone should remember being born. It doesn't seem fair that we only remember dying.”
“Everyone is a potential murderer-in everyone there arises from time to time the wish to kill-though not the will to kill.”
“A book that I would recommend for everyone: The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks.”
