Annemarie Schwarzenbach
“This sufficed: the overwhelming monument to the man who had not feared the poverty and grandeur of the steppe, so alien to all human measure. I breathed deep and tried, despite all, to salute life...”
Annemarie Schwarzenbach, All the Roads Are Open: The Afghan Journey

“Between the lines thoughts were felt. In a way words could never read.”
Maira Cheeda
