Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Don’t let life’s unfairness, don’t let how poor you are decide who you are. You choose who you will be, Aladdin. Will you be a hero who looks after the weak and powerless? Will you be a thief? Will you be a beggar—or worse? It’s up to you, not the things—or people—around you. You can choose to be something more.”
“There’s another way. You don’t have to choose this life. You could be something more.”
“I promise: if it’s that important to you, we will come back for him. But right now, there is only so much a thief, a princess, a tiger, a monkey, and a magic carpet can do.”
“when anyone can reach up and take as much as they want—gold stops having value. Like sand.”
