Khaled Hosseini Quotes:
Ocupation: Novelist
Life: b. March 4, 1965
Birthday: March 4
I foresaw my life unfolding as an interminable stretch of nothingness and so I spent my years on Tinos floundering, feeling like a stand-in for myself, a proxy, as though my real self resided elsewhere, waiting to unite someday with this dimmer, more hollow self. I felt marooned. An exile in my own home
