Yarasistan: My Wounds, My Crown Quotes

“Just Need to Be Human (The Sonnet) You don't need to be an arab to stand by the muslims, you just need to be human. You don't need to be an immigrant to stand up against hate crime, you just need to be human. You don't need to be a woman to stand up to misogyny, you just need to be human. You don't need to be a queer to stand up to phobia, you just need to be human. You don't need to be colored to defy discrimination, you just need humanity. You just need to be not stupid enough, to confuse diversity with pathology. Every person we meet is our neighbor. We cannot exist as human beings, till we wipe each other's tears.”

“The universal reason is love, The universal faith is love. All else is but a faint echo, Driving us away from love. Taking the echo for the source, the living heart turns bitter stone. The sky above knows no east and west, only the bugs beneath insist on separation.”
