Quotes from Abbas Kazerooni

You cannot imagine how much I miss you... The house does not feel the same. I keep feeling that you are here or thinking that I see you. I even think that I can hear you some afternoons...I go out to see... I look for you, but I can't find you. My life is not the same without you.

I cannot imagine how hard it must be for you. Just be strong a little longer. Pray to God, and you will see that He will answer you. I pray for you every night... just as I taught you to do.

I have learned how to make time pass, but I never stop thinking of you.

If you are ever sad and think that life is hard, remember that you are not alone...

People like you don't come around too often.

The man walked off into the crowd, and before I knew it, he'd disappeared. There I was with my suitcase, in the middle of the Istanbul Airport. Alone.

Quite simply, I was terrified" (Kazerooni, 2014, p. 45).
