Sunyi Dean
“Pain and grief are holes that never fill. We just learn to step around them as we walk.”
Sunyi Dean, The Girl with a Thousand Faces

Omar El Akkad
“And the obvious centrist refrain—But do you want the deranged right wing to win?—should, after even a moment of self-reflection, yield to a far more important question: How empty does your message have to be for a deranged right wing to even have a chance of winning?”
Omar El Akkad, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This

Omar El Akkad
“It’s difficult to live in this country in this moment and not come to the conclusion that the principal concern of the modern American liberal is, at all times, not what one does or believes or supports or opposes, but what one is seen to be.”
Omar El Akkad, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This

Amal El-Mohtar
“Bel,” she said helplessly, around the fire in her throat. “Queen of ducks and angels. You shall have poems written to you with a quill on fire. You shall have songs sung to you by enchanted harps. Whole branches of grammar will be invented only to praise you.” “Ysabel Hawthorn,” she said, and she could not keep the heat from her voice, “demand better than to be worshipped by a crumb.”
Amal El-Mohtar, The River Has Roots

Omar El Akkad
“Of course the Republicans would be worse. What the mainstream Democrat seems incapable of accepting is that, for an even remotely functioning conscience, there exists a point beyond which relative harm can no longer offset absolute evil. For a lot of people, genocide is that point. Suddenly, an otherwise very persuasive argument takes on a different meaning: “Vote for the liberal though he harms you because the conservative will harm you more” starts to sound a lot like “Vote for the liberal though he harms you because the conservative might harm me, too.”
Omar El Akkad, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This
