“We must strive to be like the moon… people complain when there is too much sun… and also when it rains too much or when it is cold. But, no one grumbles when the moon shines. Everyone becomes happy and appreciates the moon in their own special way. Children watch their shadows and play in its light, people gather at the square to tell stories and dance through the night. A lot of happy things happen when the moon shines”
― Ishmael Beah, A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier
