“I live for the dream that my children will be born free. That they will be what they like. That they will own the land their father gave them.'

“It was warm, and outside the sound of insects in the night was electric.
The music sounded better than anything I'd ever heard.
I had never been so happy in my life.

― Andrew Smith, Grasshopper Jungle

“I was going to do something I'd never done, and see things I could not understand and never believed existed.

This is history, and it is also the truth.”
― Andrew Smith, Grasshopper Jungle
