Book cover for Your Tongue Is Still Yours: Reflections On Language
Recently, there has been talk in Pakistan of decolonizing Urdu expressions, of shrugging off the Arabic. It is the invader’s tongue, some say – one that seeks to turn monolithic our ancient, diverse land. Call it Ramzan, not Ramadan. Don’t ...more

Tayari Jones
“Sometimes it's exhausting for me to simply walk into the house. I try and calm myself, remember that I've lived alone before. Sleeping by myself didn't kill me then and will not kill me now. But this what loss has taught me of love. Our house isn't simply empty, our home has been emptied. Love makes a place in your life, it makes a place for itself in your bed. Invisibly, it makes a place in your body, rerouting all your blood vessels, throbbing right alongside your heart. When it's gone, nothing is whole again.”
Tayari Jones, An American Marriage

“I'm alone in a way that's more than the fact that I am the only living person within these walls. Up until now, I thought I knew what was and wasn't possible. Maybe that's what innocence is, having no way to predict the pain of the future. When something happens that eclipses the imaginable, it changes a person. It's like the difference between a raw egg and a scrambled egg. It's the same thing, but it's not the same at all. That's the best way I can put it. I look in the mirror and I know it's me, but I can't quite recognize myself.”
Tayari Jones, An American Marriage

Ursula K. Le Guin
“They all know it is there, all the people of Omelas. Some of them have come to see it, others are content merely to know it is there. They all know that it has to be there. Some of them understand why, and some do not, but they all understand that their happiness, the beauty of their city, the tenderness of their friendships, the health of their children, the wisdom of their scholars, the skill of their makers, even the abundance of their harvest and the kindly weathers of their skies, depend wholly on this child's abominable misery.”
Ursula K. Le Guin, The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas

عباس محمود العقاد
“وَلَا خَيْرَ فِي حُسْنِ الْجُسُومِ وَطُولِهَا إِذَا لَمْ يَزِنْ حُسْنَ الْجُسُومِ عُقُولُ”
عباس محمود العقاد, ‫عرائس وشياطين‬

Jokha Alharthi
“ماتت دون أن يشعر بها أحد، ماتت كل يوم وكل ليلة، عشر سنوات تتنفس وتأكل وتشرب وهي ميتة، تكلم الناس وتمشي بينهم وهي ميتة، حتى أسلم جسدها روحه الميتة أخيرًا وكف عن التظاهر بالحياة.”
جوخة الحارثي, Celestial Bodies
