“If one morning in the Spring, a stranger came and said to me, Your mother, father, brother, sister, uncle, lover, friend, is dead. From a b-52, napalm bombing, search and destroy mission, air attack, Tet offensive, My Lai massacre, failed escape, I would not scream but make of my body a net, a tarp, stretched taut across the sky, the sea, over every village and hamlet. Prepared to catch everything from the sky, shade everything on the ground, rain water and receive you, war, with arms outstretched.” ― Lê Thi Diem Thúy
“When I grow up I am going to be the gangster we are all looking for.” ― Le Thi Diem Thuy, The Gangster We Are All Looking For
“I don't know how time moves or which of our sorrows or our desires it is able to wash away.” ― Le Thi Diem Thuy, The Gangster We Are All Looking For
