“The Dark Cloud Is the green-eyed monster of jealous idiots who want your wisdom but don’t want your trauma Is the ignorance of people who have not gone through any drama Is the incalculable resilience of survivors of war and genocide that don’t seek to destroy the lives of others Is the difficulty associated with trusting anyone when you have lost your brothers and mothers”

“What is life anyway? Is it a bridge between thoughts and emotions? Is it a reflection of brilliant and foolish notions? Is it a system that provides methods to find roots? Is it a map of many illusions and absolute truths? What is life anyway? Is it a gate to worlds that are not yet known? Is it a farm where ideas are planted and grown? Is it a tiny seed that blooms into a beautiful rose? Is it a time capsule of experiences that you chose?”

“Please remember the heroes of the Bosnian War Like Izet Nanić, Safet Hadžić, and Mehdin Hodžić Who bravely ventured into situations that were unknown Risking their safety in the middle of a war zone Sing this powerful song for everyone to hear Sing so that the stories of Bosnians are clear and loud Pound your fists on the table and declare That justice must be firm, strong, and proud!”

“if perceptions are an experiment, then why do we always lament that a fool unkindly proclaimed our visible flaws? when did we start making these laws? for whom do we play this act and when did we introduce such a pact are we so hopelessly vain to see that we have nothing to gain we are just bystanders to our own lives our instincts urge us to take nosedives into the dimensions of our inner bliss where we do not have to hiss we seem to be thoroughly convinced that if we acted as ourselves, we would be minced when did living the truth become so ugly held prisoner by mental chains, our ego smugly i shall not honor this unspoken code i will not walk down the beaten road you may ridicule me, you may even condemn but you will not sew my hem!”

“He is my knight. Trying his best to protect my soul, even though being with me has more than its share of both beauty and sadness. I’m not an easy person to understand. My eternity, and the future that I want us both to have, is surrounded by flowers and the sun. The infinity of forever can be summed up within the magic of a kiss for that is love’s goal.”

“The Dark Cloud Is the sadness and anger that you experience sometimes Is the number of friends you lost because of rape crimes Is the mood of women in Juarez, Mexico that are scared of walking down the street because they see the rapists around the corner Is the disrespect that you endured because you were a “foreigner”

“The Dark Cloud Is the group of people who believe that cruelty is A-OK but it’s not cool if you’re sappy Is the fact that some people believe women warriors don’t deserve to be happy Is the sound of the birds that could not fly and never grew Is the pain you experience when you know that someone doesn’t love you”

“The Dark Cloud Is the decision I could have made to go into a homicidal rage when my bullies laughed at my father’s leg because he was shot in his ankle during the Bosnian War Is the rage I felt when 4 of my friends were raped in college because rapists like to roar Is the fierce determination I have to make sure that no woman ever gets raped Is the tragic end of girls and babies who were slaughtered while their rapists escaped”

“I barely escaped Sarajevo in one piece Chetniks looked directly at my mother They were eager to kill us like mice She saw their evil eyes, as cold as ice They wanted to ensure our extinction They wanted to plan our demise But despite their ammunition We were strategic, clever, and wise Imagine being in a situation like that What would you do? What would you think? How would you deal with the intensity Of being afraid to even blink? Think about people that matter to you most What if they became like a distant ghost? What if all your friends, family, and favorite things Suddenly became birds with clipped wings?”

“People wrongly assume that just because it is peaceful where they live, terrible things will be unable to reach them. My personal experience has taught me that, in the context of evil, it is simply a question of when it will be someone’s turn to suffer. No matter what race, color, religion, gender, military status, socioeconomic level, age, disability, national origin, or marital status, evil can strike anyone at any time.”
