Quotes of Category: impatience
By Allah, how _thankful_ he is {_yes, madam, one moment, madam_}, how _gladdened_ by the thought that Magid, Magid at least, will, in a matter of four hours, be flying east from this place and its demands, its constant cravings, this place where there exists neither patience nor pity, where the people want what they want _now_, right now {_We've been waiting twenty minutes for the vegetables_}, expecting their lovers, their children, their friends, and even their gods to arrive at little cost and in little time, just as table ten expect their tandoori prawns. . . . book-quotepitypatienceimpatience
