A Perfect Day Quote
Sophie: Where is the roof?
Mambr·: Out there somewhere. They blew it off from right there, you see? They leave an open tank of butane... they light a fuse... close the windows, shut the door. Half an hour later... pfft! The roof is gone.
Sophie: Who?
Mambr·: Neighbors, probably. But before the war, if you were a Muslim and your husband a Serb... or the other way around, well, it was no big deal. Then the war starts... the lines are drawn. And now it's too dangerous to stay here. So you leave the kids with the grandparents... and you go to the other side... where it's safer. But while you're away... the neighbors blow up your house so you won't come back after the war. But it could be worse.
Sophie: What could be worse? [starting to sit down]
Mambr·: Putting a mine in the sofa in case you do come back.
