"" قلت في نفسي علينا أن نقبله تمامًا مصل نزلة الأنفلونزا ، إذا ما بدأت فسوف تمر و يشفى الإنسان منها. حكت لي أمي كيف أصيبت هي بالاكتئاب بعد ان افترقت عن صديقها و كيف يصل الإنسان إلى مرحلة لا يستطيع تحملها لدرجة تفقده أي سيطرة على نفسه حتى يقوم الجسم بضرب الشخص في قصبة رجله لكي يوضح له أن الحال يجب أن يتحسن"" — Jan 29, 2026 10:47AM

“Comrades, there is no true social revolution without the liberation of women. May my eyes never see and my feet never take me to a society where half the people are held in silence. I hear the roar of women’s silence. I sense the rumble of their storm and feel the fury of their revolt.”
