Yet when necessary, or when it suits her, she is victimizer. Does he imagine he is battling for her soul?”

“भीम के समान शक्तिशाली होते हुए भी अनेक व्यक्ति रॉयल बंगाल टाइगर के आक्रमण के सामने असहाय हो उठते हैं। इस प्रकार बाघ मनुष्य को उसके ही मन की कल्पना में एक साधारण बिल्ली की भयभीत अवस्था के समान स्थिति में डाल देता है। परन्तु जिस मनुष्य में बलिष्ठ शरीर के साथ-साथ अत्यंत दृढ़ निश्चय हो, वह परिस्थिति को बाघ पर ही उलट सकता है और उसे यह मानने पर विवश कर सकता है कि वह एक बिल्ली के समान ही आत्मरक्षा करने में असमर्थ है।” मैं”

“If I have one message to give to the secular American people, it’s that the world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West.

The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same.”
― Marjane Satrapi
