* "For you, a thousand times over." The first time the line's said is sweet in itself, though what happens after that makes it very ironic, but when [[spoiler:Amir and Sohrab are kite fighting and they manage to take one of them down. Amir immediately runs after the kite to catch it for Sohrab, telling him, "For you, a thousand times over."]]
* In the movie, when [[spoiler:Baba and Amir are fleeing Kabul]], Amir is a little boy instead of an 18-year-old. Baba knows that Amir is afraid and strokes his forehead and comforts him. Keep in mind that this is a man who previously treated his son with aloof detachment.
* The General behaves with unease towards [[spoiler: Sohrab, because of his prejudice towards Hazaras]]. His wife Jamila couldn't care less and knits a turtleneck sweater like a goddamn kindly grandmother, despite having never met the boy until that point.

* The ending, and Hassan's letter to Amir.
-->''"Mostly, though, I dream of good things. [...] I dream that my son will grow up to be a good person, a free person, and an important person. I dream that lawla flowers will bloom in the streets of Kabul again and rubab music will play in the samovar houses and kites will fly in the skies. And I dream that someday you will return to Kabul to revisit the land of our childhood."''
