"But I was frightened of everything that moved — every insect, every animal. My grandmother would sometimes try to reason with me. “A wild horse that bolts at every moving thing stumbles and breaks its leg," she told me. “As you run from your small insect you may fall onto this bush and die, because it is poisonous. You may fall onto this mound and die because it hides a snake. You must learn what to fear and what not to fear." (Ayaan Hirsi Ali. Infidel).
"When you’re on your own in the desert, you are completely on your own." ( Ayaan Hirsi Ali. Infidel)
