I think it's the human spirit inside of all of us that has an enormous capacity to survive.

We all waited on an afterlife. Only I planned to be alive for mine.

I'm afraid of elevators, because they are an enclosed space, but I get in.

After being in captivity for so long, I can't begin to describe how wonderful it feels to be home in Canada.

Maintaining my dignity is so important for me.

I don't only long for the thrill of being in the middle of a war, I must understand it; I must make other people understand.

Forgiving is not an easy thing to do.
