Book cover for The Question of Palestine
In sheer numerical terms, in brute numbers of bodies and property destroyed, there is absolutely nothing to compare between what Zionism has done to Palestinians and what, in retaliation, Palestinians have done to Zionists.

“There are no bargains between lion and men. I will kill you and eat you raw.”
Madeline Miller, The Song of Achilles

Anaïs Nin
“I have always been tormented by the image of multiplicity of selves. Some days I call it richness, and other days I see it as a disease, a proliferation as dangerous as cancer. My first concept about people around me was that all of them were coordinated into a WHOLE, whereas I was made up of a multitude of selves, of fragments.”
Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. 1: 1931-1934

Madeline Miller
“When he died, all things soft and beautiful and bright would be buried with him.”
Madeline Miller, The Song of Achilles

Allen Ginsberg
“I don't do anything with my life except romanticize and decay with indecision.”
Allen Ginsberg, The Book of Martyrdom and Artifice: First Journals and Poems, 1937-1952

Renée Ahdieh
“Shazi,

I prefer the color blue to any other. The scent of lilacs in your hair is a source of constant torment. I despise figs. Lastly, I will never forget, all the days of my life, the memories of last night—
For nothing, not the sun, not the rain, not even the brightest star in the darkest sky, could begin to compare to the wonder of you.

Khalid.”
Renee Ahdieh, The Wrath and the Dawn
