“We are silent when we see that all the money of all the nations has come into the hands of a few men; which we seem to tolerate and to permit with the more equanimity, because none of these robbers conceals what he is doing. CICERO”

“I'm an animal, you can see that I'm an animal. I have no words, they haven't taught me the words; I don't know how to think, those bastards didn't let me learn how to think. But if you really are-all powerful, all knowing, all understanding-figure it out! Look into my soul, I know-everything you need is in there. It has to be. Because I've never sold my soul to anyone! It's mine, it's human! Figure out yourself what I want because I know it can't be bad! The hell with it all, I just can't think of a thing other than those words of his- HAPPINESS, FREE, FOR EVERYONE, AND LET NO ONE BE FORGOTTEN!”

“It's not that Israel doesn't have the space or money but that it simply doesn't want to absorb Palestinians. The racist Zionist demographic obsession with a Jewish majority is the main hurdle for reconciliation in historical Palestine. As long as Israel holds to this ideology, building a just society of both Palestinians and Jews is impossible. The precondition for peace is jettisoning this ideology.
And if this ideology is jettisoned, then there is no obstacle to implementing the right of return, and so it becomes perfectly feasible.”
― Israel on the Brink: And the Eight Revolutions that Could Lead to Decolonization and Coexistence

“She did not know it then, but the word "baby," said softly and with such kindness, that inaugurated her life in the world as a woman.”
