Annemle babam niye mutsuz olduğumu sormasınlar, beni yalan uydurmak zorunda bırakmasınlar diye, gözyaşlarımı tutmak, yüzümdeki ifadeye hâkim olmak mecburiyetindeydim. Ama bütün bunlar bir anda sona erdi; öyle bir an geldi ki mantık tökezledi… sabır tükendi.
Kötülere iyilik etmek kum üstüne yazı yazmak gibidir.
