“Cuando estoy encerrada en mi cuarto, no leo; ¡escribo todo aquello que se me antoja, porque el papel, este blanco luminoso papel, me guarda con amor todo cuando le digo y nunca, jamás, se escandaliza, ni me regaña, ni se pone las manos abiertas sobre los oídos!..”
― Teresa de la Parra, Ifigenia

“By declaring our Prophet infallible and not permitting ourselves to question him, we Muslims had set up a static tyranny. The Prophet Muhammad attempted to legislate every aspect of life. By adhering to his rules of what is permitted and what is forbidden, we Muslims supressed the freedom to think for ourselves and to act as we chose. We froze the moral outlook of billions of people into the mind-set of the Arab desert in the seventh century. We were not just servants of Allah, we were slaves.”
― Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Infidel
