My favorite books are:

Few of my favorite quotes from the above-mentioned books or the other books I’ve read so far are:
• “I have this thing about friends and secrets. Sometimes when I meet a person I like, I tell them a secret they don't know me well enough to be told. It lets me judge their potential as a friend.”
― Mohsin Hamid, Moth Smoke
• "Marriage can wait, education cannot."
— Khaled Hosseini (A Thousand Splendid Suns)
• "A society has no chance of success if its women are uneducated..."
— Khaled Hosseini (A Thousand Splendid Suns)
• "Behind every trial and sorrow that He makes us shoulder, God has a reason."
— Khaled Hosseini (A Thousand Splendid Suns)
• "You see, some things I can teach you. Some you learn from books. But there are things that, well, you have to see and feel."
— Khaled Hosseini (A Thousand Splendid Suns)
• "It may be unfair, but what happens in a few days, sometimes even a single day, can change the course of a whole lifetime..."
— Khaled Hosseini (The Kite Runner)
• "There is only one sin and that is theft... when you tell a lie, you steal someone’s right to the truth."
— Khaled Hosseini (The Kite Runner)
• "Well, it seems to me that the best relationships - the ones that last - are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship. You know, one day you look at the person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been flicked somewhere. And the person who was just a friend is... suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with."
— Gillian Anderson
• "You only get one life. It's actually your duty to live it as fully as possible."
— Jojo Moyes (Me Before You (Me Before You, #1)
These lines did have a role in changing my perspective towards life. I love that small isolated world of mine where I live with my books and cherish what I read. I often take some time off from my busy life and pay a visit to this beautiful hidden world of mine.
