“How many people today live in a language that is not their own? Or no longer, or not yet, even know their own and know poorly the major language that they are forced to serve? This is the problem of immigrants, and especially of their children, the problem of minorities, the problem of a minor literature but also a problem for all of us: how to tear a minor literature away from its own language, allowing it to challenge the language and making it follow a sober revolutionary path? How to become a nomad and an immigrant and a gypsy in relation to one's own language? Kafka answers: steal the baby from its crib, walk the tight rope.”
― Gilles Deleuze, Kafka: Toward a Minor Literature

“تعرفينَ أنني أغارُ وأحترقُ وأشتهي وأتعذّب. تعرفينَ إنني حائرٌ وإنني غارقٌ في ألف شوكةٍ بريّة.. تعرفين.. ورغم ذلك فأنتِ، فوق ذلك كله، تُحولينني أحياناً إلى مجرد تافهٍ آخر، تصغرين ذلك النابض القاتل الذي يهزني كالقصبة، معكِ وبدونك.”
― غادة السمان, رسائل غسان كنفاني الى غادة السمان
