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

“My mother always says when you fight destiny, destiny fights back. Some things, they're just written in the stars. You can try but you can never escape what's meant to be.”
Aisha Saeed, Written in the Stars

“Life is full of sadness. It's part of being a woman. Our lives are lived for the sake of others. Our happiness is never factored in. Do I want this life? Living here and seeing my husband a few times a year, raising my daughter alone? I don't know what it was like in America, but this is how life is. This is reality. But this advice is coming too late. It's meaningless now.”
Aisha Saeed, Written in the Stars

“If everyone decided nothing could change, nothing ever would.”
Aisha Saeed, Amal Unbound

Topics Mentioning This Author

“Natalie was buried in the family plot, next to a gravestone that already bore her parents' names. I know the wisdom, that no parents should see their child die, that such an event is like nature spun backward. But it's the only way to truly keep your child. Kid grow up, they forge more potent allegiances. They find a spouse or a lover. They will not be buried with you. The Keenes, however, will remain the purest form of family. Underground.”
Gillian Flynn, Sharp Objects
