Sabahattin Ali
“I don’t think I would have loved her so much if she had loved me back.”
Sabahattin Ali

Aimé Césaire
“it is the colonized man who wants to move forward, and the colonizer who holds things back.”
Aimé Césaire, Discourse on Colonialism

Aimé Césaire
“the colonizer, who in order to ease his conscience gets into the habit of seeing the other man as an animal, accustoms himself to treating him like an animal, and tends objectively to transform himself into an animal.”
Aimé Césaire, Discourse on Colonialism

Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar
“O kendisi olmak için beni unutmağa belki muhtaç! Fakat ben ancak onun sayesinde biraz kendim olabiliyorum. Bu, belki de onun anlayamayacağı bir şey. O benim kaderimi bitmiş biliyor ve bunda haklı! Fakat ben onun kaderi üstüne acz içinde titriyorum”
Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar, Saatleri Ayarlama Enstitüsü

Aimé Césaire
“First we must study how colonization works to decivilize the colonizer, to brutalize him in the true sense of the word, to degrade him, to awaken him to buried instincts, to covetousness, violence, race hatred, and moral relativism; and we must show that each time a head is cut off or an eye put out in Vietnam and in France they accept the fact, each time a little girl is raped and in France they accept the fact, each time a Madagascan is tortured and in France they accept the fact, civilization acquires another dead weight, a universal regression takes place, a gangrene sets in, a center of infection begins to spread; and that at the end of all these treaties that have been violated, all these lies that have been propagated, all these punitive expeditions that have been tolerated, all these prisoners who have been tied up and interrogated, all these patriots who have been tortured, at the end of all the racial pride that has been encouraged, all the boastfulness that has been displayed, a poison has been instilled into the veins of Europe and, slowly but surely, the continent proceeds toward savagery.”
Aimé Césaire, Discourse on Colonialism
