I thought about Hassan's dream, the one about us swimming in the lake. There is no monster, he'd said, just water. Except he'd been wrong about that. There was a monster in the lake. It had grabbed Hassan by the ankles, dragged him to the murky bottom. I was that monster.
The Kite Runner
I had one last chance to make a decision. One final opportunity to decide who I was going to be. I could step into that alley, stand up for Hassan -- the way he'd stood up for me all those times in the part -- and accept whatever would happen to me. Or I could run. In the end, I ran.

"It hurts to say that," he said shrugging. "But better to get hurt by the truth than comforted with a lie."
The Kite Runner
"A boy who won't stand up for himself becomes a man who can't stand up to anything."
The Kite Runner
"Everyone is on their way to their graves, so why is everyone so happy and excited?"

"For me, America was a place to bury my memories. For Baba, a place to mourn his."
Amir, The Kite Runner
"For you, a thousand times over."
Hassan, The Kite Runner
"Say that Evelyn Hugo doesn't care if everyone forgets her name. Evelyn Hugo doesn't care if everyone forgets she was ever alive. Better yet, remind them that Evelyn Hugo never existed. She was a person I made up for them. So that they would love me. Tell them that I was confused, for a very long time, about what love was. Tell them that I understand now, and I don't need their love anymore. "
"I told her every single day that her life had been the world's greatest gift to me, that I believed I was put on earth not to make movies or wear emerald-green gowns and wave at crowds but to be her mother."
"Some marriages aren't really that great. some loves aren't all-encompassing. Sometimes you separate because you weren't that good together to begin with. Sometimes divorce isn't an earth-shattering loss. Sometimes it's just two people waking up out of a fog. "
"I had learned all too well that pain was sometimes stronger than we need to keep up appearances."
"There's a difference between sexuality and sex. I used to get what I wanted. Sex is just an act. Sexuality is a sincere expression of desire and pleasure. That I always kept for Celia."
"You didn't just keep me alive, you made me live."
"People have their stamps on how long you should know someone before yearning the right to say it, but I wouldn't lie to you no matter how little time we have. People waste time and wait for the right moment and we don't have the luxury. If we had our entire lives ahead of us I bet you'd get tired of me telling you how much I love you because I'm positive that's the path we were heading on. But because we're about to die, I want to say it as many times as I want - I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you."
