S.A. Chakraborty
“When the Franks and Turks weren't fighting over Egypt, the only thing they seemed to agree on was that the Egyptians couldn't govern it themselves. God forbid. It's not as though the Egyptians were the inheritors of a great civilization whose mighty monuments still littered the land. Oh, no. They were peasants, superstitious fools who ate too many beans”
S.A. Chakraborty, The City of Brass

Edward W. Said
“Every empire, however, tells itself and the world that it is unlike all other empires, that its mission is not to plunder and control but to educate and liberate."

(Los Angeles Times, July 20, 2003)”
Edward W. Said

James Baldwin
“If we- and now I mean the relatively conscious whites and the relatively conscious blacks, who must, like lovers, insist on, or create, the consciousness of the others- do not falter in our duty now, we may be able, handful that we are, to end the racial nightmare, and achieve our country, and change the history of the world”
James Baldwin, The Fire Next Time

مريد البرغوثي
“سنصعد هذا الجبل
متعبين تماما
و حولي و حولك يأسان
يأسي و يأسك
رعبي و رعبك
يا صاحبي

نحن لسنا جبانين
أو بطلين
ولكننا ولدان بسيطان
مثل مكاتيب فلاحة غربوها
بسيطان
مثل نعاس الرعاة ومثل العطش
بسيطان
كالعائدين من الحقل للبيت
كالعائدين من الويل للبيت
نحن بسيطان
يا ليت قصتنا مثلنا

الطريق إلى السهل هذا الجبل
الطريق إلى الأهل هذا الجبل
كل ما تشتهى ، كل ما أشتهى
يبدأ الآن أو ينتهى
و الأمل ذروة اليأس يا صاحبى
توجع قليلا
توجع كثيرا
توجع
فإن الأمل ذاته موجع حين لا يتبق سواه
سنصعد هذا الجبل !”
مريد البرغوثي

Khaled Hosseini
“One could not count the moons that shimmer on her roofs,
Or the thousand splendid suns that hide behind her walls.”
Khaled Hosseini, A Thousand Splendid Suns
