Yes, I'm still reading the Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts (it is REALLY big and has really small writing!!) but thanks to my lovely flatmate, Heather, I now have a high-lighter and there are flashes of illuminous orange splattered all over almost ever second page instead of dirty, bug, dog-ears!!.
The way this guy writes is just so beautiful and I wish I could claim the quotes as my own but who knows, maybe one day I'll be quoting myself?!?
I couldn't put the book down last night (and as a result ended up falling asleep on top of my book and with the light still on...DOH!) and here is one of the quotes that just stuck in my head. I've read over it about 5 times since then and I just think it's so thought-provoking and so honest. Let me know what you think!
"Sometimes we love with nothing more than hope. Sometimes we cry with everything except tears. In the end that's all there is: love and its duty, sorrow and its truth. In the end that's all we have - to hold on tight until the dawn."
WOW
