“My brother thinks it is very, very bad that I left Islam. My half-sist...” — Ayaan Hirsi Ali Quote

“My brother thinks it is very, very bad that I left Islam. My half-sister wants to convert me back; I want to convert her to Western values. My mum is terrified that when I die, and we all go to God, I will be burned.”

“The idea that if people are just friendly and demonstrate they want peace, that will be answered with good will - that is really naive.”

“I grew up in what some would call an immaculately clean home. I hated my mom a little for it. I wasn't allowed to paint my nails, since they'd chip and 'look trashy.' My brother and I didn't run around in clothes that had holes or were stained.”

“My brother came home from college with a Mountain Goats cassette and I was like, 'What is this?' The lyrics were crazy to me. I'd never heard anything like it.”

“It's a dream come true just playing in the NBA. It's more worth it when you're playing against your brother.”
