Reading Journal (A Mighty Heart)

This week i read the book "A Mighty Heart" By Mariane Pearl
This part, i read about how Daniel Pearl's trap was set up, it was set up by some dude named Omar Sheikh, and he got another guy named Omar too, to bribe the taxi driver to drive him to an abandoned alley. That is were they just came up to him, put a mask over him. That pretty much of what i've read.
Here is the quote: “We can't be secure, we can't walk around free, as long as our government policies are continuing and we allow them to continue.” Daniel Pearl

Reading Journal (A Mighty Heart)

This week i've read a little part of "A Mighty Heart" by Mariane Pearl. From what i've read, they have arrived in Karachi. And there about to wait for their unborn son. But before they leave for the US, Daniel has one last interview. And Taxi dude leads him into a trap, so yeah, thats pretty much what i read.

Quote: " I know they are dying of fear, but they control their feelings. They are courageous people. Before hanging up, However, Ruth asks me the question that, I am certain, was the first to cross her mind.


(For some reason i believe the book has bad grammar or whatever, its not my grammar)

Reading Journal (A Mighty Heart)

This week i read a a little bit of the book named "A Mighty Heart" by Mariane Pearl. The book is about a journalist who goes to Pakistan for a very big interview. But at the very end of his interview he went missing. And that's pretty much what i read so far, and that they are suspecting this one guy of leading him somewhere else.

Quote: " I write this book for you, Adam, so you know that your father was not a hero but an ordinary man. An ordinary hero with a mighty heart. I write this book for you so you can be free.

Reading Journal (ThE CaT wiTh A rEally BIG hEad)

Here is a quote from the book called "ThE CaT wiTh A rEally BIG hEad"

Quote: "After a lifetime of mental abuse, large hats, and receiving Russian radio signals, the cat decided that he wanted to eat with dignity one time. One time eating strawless like a normal kitty. I like to think that he understood the consequences of this. That a big head means a big brain...
I like to think that."

Question: What is the cost of having a big head? Is it just to have a big brain and is it worth it?

Answer: I believe so, many people that were thought to have funny looking physical appearances turned out to be very famous and powerful people. Like for example, Napoleon, Einstein, etc.
