Challenges Quote by S.F. Said
““The tyger's tail thumped behind her. 'This stunted little world breaks my heart,' she said. 'So much here has stagnated and died. I wanted to remind you of what has been lost--but also of what is possible. You see, tygers could flourish only when they lived in freedom. And you have never known what it is to be free.””
