The Kite Runner

"There is only one sin, only one. And that is THEFT. Every other sin is a variation of THEFT.

"When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father.
When you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth.
When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness. Do you see?"

"I am so afraid."Soraya.
"Why?"
"Because I am so profoundly happy. Happiness like this is frightening. They only let you be this happy if they're preparing to take something from you." Soraya.

"Father used to say it's wrong to hurt even bad people. Because they don't know any better, and because sometimes bad people become good."Sohrab.
