Je mehr Sprachen man spricht, desto besser versteht man sich selbst.

The more you speak more languages, the more you understand about yourself.

I wanted to write something in a voice that was unique to who I was. And I wanted something that was accessible to the person who works at Dunkin Donuts or who drives a bus, someone who comes home with their feet hurting like my father, someone who's busy and has too many children, like my mother.
