“Temporary madness, in war, is bravery’s sister.”
― David Diop, At Night All Blood is Black

“My brothers in combat, white or black, need to believe that it isn’t the war that will kill them, but the evil eye. They need to believe it won’t be one of the thousands of bullets fired by the enemy from the other side that will randomly kill them. They don’t like randomness. Randomness is too absurd. They want someone to blame, they’d rather think that the enemy bullet that hits them was directed, guided by some cruel, malevolent, evil intent.”
― David Diop, At Night All Blood is Black

“God's truth, each thing carries its opposite within.”

“When a crown falls, many arms reach out to catch it.”
