"With children who are half Nubian Egyptian, this history is personal to me. Rusha Latif’s Tahrir’s Youth is a rare and extraordinarily valuable English-language account that dismantles Western myths of the 2011 Tahrir uprising as a spontaneous “social media revolution” and instead situates it within decades of resistance, political formation, organizing networks, and Egypt’s ongoing struggle for justice. Powerful." — Sep 05, 2026 09:05AM

“A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness.”

“ma gia volgena il mio disio e'l velle
si come rota ch'igualmente e mossa,
l'amor che move: i sole e l'altre stelle
...as a wheel turns smoothtly, free from jars, my will and my desire were turned by love, The love that moves the sun and the other stars.”
― Paradise

“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.”

“For beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror
which we are barely able to endure, and it amazes us so,
because it serenely disdains to destroy us.
Every angel is terrible.”

“Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.”
