"Why can’t the world hear? I ask myself. Within a few moments I ask it many times. Because it doesn’t..." - Markus Zusak

“

Why can’t the world hear? I ask myself. Within a few moments I ask it many times. Because it doesn’t care, I finally answer, and I know I’m right. It’s like I’ve been chosen. But chosen for what? I ask.
