― Tehmina Durrani, My Feudal Lord
“Run towards the roar,” the old people used to tell the young ones. When faced with great danger and when people panic and seek a false sense of safety, run towards the roaring and go where you fear to go. For only in facing your fears can you find some safety and a way through. When the world rattles and the end seems near, go towards the roar.

Don’t dwell too much on the past. The lessons are useful for the present and a preparation for the future. Move on!
