Quotes by Myriam J. A. Chancy (?)

“What is invisible and yet still lives is more powerful than monuments or words engraved in stone.”
― Myriam J.A. Chancy, Spirit of Haiti

“I realized only later that they were my first loves, these earthbound, dusty women, my first audiences and inspiration. Back then, even amid political violence and deprivation, hopes dashed over and over again, in the market, everything seemed so simple, so near, beyond the tentacles of the mighty who would want to crush us: a women's world with other rules.”
― Myriam J. A. Chancy, What Storm, What Thunder

“At least I could read, count, and pray the catechism. I thought this made me lucky, but in other ways, it made me poor, like a pocket turned inside out, empty of coins.”
― Myriam J.A. Chancy, What Storm, What Thunder
