Their lives are devoid of heroism or glory... or adventures or surprises... or any kind of excitement... but rather they are the lives of the thousands... and millions of insignificant little ones" pg:15.

Quotes from the book[edit]
"I had not forgotten the colors and scenes of torment I experienced with this mother, after everyone had died, and no one was left for us.. those scenes in the streets of Aleppo and its roads, and the death transport carts: they gather them from the sidewalks so that a human can be discerned among them, I can hardly make out the features of his face, until dozens or hundreds of features and images crowd him." (Part 2, p. 12)
"Hunger was something, I still say, until this day, it is the most dangerous calamity and disaster that a human can suffer from.. as severe as my grandfather and mother were suffering, when they found themselves completely incapable of even providing themselves with this bread, not for them, but for me at the stage where I began to recover from typhoid." (Part 2, p. 116)
