So sensitive and so suspicious in the face of the wicked, civilized west.

But then something happened that made me doubt all of it: I graduated sixth grade! View quote

They had left him for dead in the middle of a pool of blood in his own bedroom, his belly slit open like gaping barn doors, the hilt of the knife wedged against his sternum.

Now he was looking up at me with seconds left and all he could do was force out the words, "Mike ...there was no reason." View quote
