Quotes by Tahereh Mafi  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I spent my life folded between the pages of books.
In the absence of human relationships I formed bonds with paper characters. I lived love and loss through stories threaded in history; I experienced adolescence by association. My world is one interwoven web of words, stringing limb to limb, bone to sinew, thoughts and images all together. I am a being comprised of letters, a character created by sentences, a figment of imagination formed through fiction.”
Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me

“All I ever wanted was to reach out and touch another human being not just with my hands but with my heart.”
Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me

“I'm oxygen and he's dying to breathe.”
Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me
