All That I Want to Forget Quotes

“Writing is a glue;
It pulls me together,
Saves me just in time,
And leaves me to perish.”

“You can all tolerate ugliness, tolerate child abuse and rape, you can tolerate cursing and swearing, domestic violence, racism, you can tolerate Israel, America, your sectarianism, government corruption, underage marriage, everything! You can tolerate all the garbage in the world but you can't tolerate a poem.”
― Bothayna Al-Essa, All That I Want to Forget
