1) "I realize that what happened in Bosnia could happen anywhere in the world, particularly in places that are diverse and have a history of conflict. It only takes bad leadership for a country to go up in flames, for people of different ethnicity, color, or religion to kill each other as if they had nothing in common whatsoever. Having a democratic constitution, laws that secure human rights, police that maintain order, a judicial system, and freedom of speech don't ultimately guarantee long lasting peace. If greedy or bloodthirsty leaders come to power, it can all go down. It happened to us. It can happen to you.” ― Savo Heleta, Not My Turn to Die: Memoirs of a Broken Childhood in Bosnia
2) "I wish i could see stars shining magnificently,birds flying in the limitless sky,sunset reflect in the blue sea,beautiful rivers running free and streets full of kids playing games with their gorgeous smiles.” ― Kadir Kasabov
3) "If the international community is not ready to defend the principles which it itself has proclaimed as its foundations, let it say so openly, both to the people of Bosnia and to the people of the world. Let it proclaim a new code of behavior in which force will be the first and the last argument.” ― Alija Izetbegović
4) "All the characters in my book are fictional, but every single one of them was inspired by someone I knew and loved who didn't make it out. I wanted to bring them back to life and so, I wrote a book about them.” ― Sanela Ramic Jurich, Remember Me
5) "Its a shame that people like myself were torn away from our families, starved for days, and were forced to move around and live without a roof over our heads, all because people cant accept each other for who they are" -Tija Begovic - Maya's Mom
