"I will cry out in my solitude,
Not to awaken those who sleep,
But so that my cry may awaken me
From my captive imagination!"
DARWICH, Mahmoud, State of Siege, 2025
“The best food is to eat when you're hungry.”
Palestinian proverb
"How do they
get through these
tragic times
while maintaining
the desire to be
human
and alive?
Who will tell
the gesture of those
whose every act is
a feat?"
ELIAS, Olivia, Your Name in Palestine, Al Manar, Neuilly-sur-Seine, 2017
