Virginia      Evans
“Grief (the biggest grief in the world) is like—What? What is it that happens to a person? I’ve always felt it is like a scream living inside me. It’s gotten a bit softer over time”
Virginia Evans, The Correspondent

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
“This is an account of a fracture, a breaking away from the notion that the polite, Western liberal ever stood for anything at all.”
Omar El Akkad, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This

Omar El Akkad
“A man says to her: Inti zay el amar. You are like the moon. Again, translation fails. There is no English equivalent to the lineage of this phrase, a lineage that runs through generations of old movies and love songs and family gatherings. Listen to the sly setting joy and pleading, raw pleading that carries the words as this man tells the girl who lived when so many others died that she is beautiful beyond the bounds of this world.”
Omar El Akkad, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This

Mohammed El-Kurd
“Did I really have to go and “see for myself,” or did I ignore a century of Palestinian literature?”
Mohammed El-Kurd, Perfect Victims: And the Politics of Appeal
