“You were born a winner, a warrior, one who defied the odds by surviving the most gruesome battle of them all - the race to the egg.

And whatever obstacles you conceive, exist only because you have forgotten what you have already achieved.”
― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“I don't paint dreams or nightmares, I paint my own reality.”
