Word: Buoyed - uplifted; keeping afloat.
Quote: "Now, no matter what the mullah teaches, there is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft... "When you kill a man, you steal a life," Baba said. "You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness. DO you see?" (Hosseini 17-18).
Quote: "Never mind that to me, the face of Afghanistan is that of a boy with a thin-boned frame, a shaved head, and low-set ears, a boy with a chinese doll face perpetually lit by a harelipped smile"(Hosseini 25).
