Palastine Quotes

“أضاء وجهها وأكدت أنها رؤية وليست منامًا."سينهزم أولاد الحرام وتصبح البلاد كلها كالمدينة المنورة”
― رضوى عاشور, الطنطورية

“All my grandfather ever wanted to do
was wake up at dawn and watch my grandmother kneel and pray
in a village hidden between Jaffa and Haifa
my mother was born under an olive tree
on a soil they say is no longer mine
but I will cross their barriers, their check points
their damn apartheid walls and return to my homeland
I am an Arab woman of color and we come in all shades of anger”
― Rafeef Ziadah

“I am an Arab woman of color Beware … Beware my anger !”
― Rafeef Ziadah

“Why should they love us?Why do you think the Arabs are not entitled to resist strangers who come here suddenly as if from another planet, and take away their land and their soil, fields, villages and towns, the graves of their ancestors and their children’s inheritance? We tell ourselves that we only came to this land “to build and be rebuilt”, “to renew our days of old”, “to redeem our ancestors heritage”, etcetera, but you tell me if there is any other people in this world who would welcome with open arms an incursion of hundreds of thousands of strangers, and then millions of strangers, landing from far away with the weird claim that their holy scripture, which they brought with them also from far away, promise this whole land to them and them alone.”
― Amos Oz, JUDAS
