Benjamin Alire Saenz Quotes

Most things are forgotten over time. Even the war itself, the life-and-death struggle people went through, is now like something from the distant past. We're so caught up in our everyday lives that events of the past, like ancient stars that have burned out, are no longer in orbit around our minds.

They remain with us forever, like a touchstone. And for me, what happened in the woods that day is one of these.
