Painful Memories

"'For you a thousand times over,' Farid said." -Pg 305 This passage really stuck with me. However, it confused me too. I really felt bad for Amir during this scene. He had been through an emotional roller coaster in the past few weeks. He had learned that his childhood friend, who was really his brother, was dead and he was now responsible for his son. He was physically exhausted from his confrontation with Assef. This scene was when he finally lost it and broke down. It surprised me that Farid said this however. It doesn't seem like a common phrase, but maybe it is in Afghanistan.
