"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

Syria war 'damaging a generation of children', UN warns- BBC News

The war in Syria is creating a generation of damaged children, aUN report warns.
School-age refugees who have fled to neighbouring countries are increasingly cut off from education and forced to work to survive, the study found.
As many as 300,000 living in Lebanon and Jordan could be without schooling by the end of 2013, the UNHCR says.
Many of those not at school go out to work for long hours and for low pay from as young as seven years old.
More than half of 2.2 million Syrian refugees are children, the UN says, with many facing grave dangers even outside the war zone.
Those perils include threats to their physical and psychological well-being, according to the report's authors.
