Quote by NoViolet Bulawayo

“Podle těch, kdo se vyznají, představovala pašíkova církev nejsilnější evangelickou frakci v Jidadě a čítala nejvíce členů, a to nejen v rámci země, ale i celého regionu - no ano, tholukuthi podle těch, kdo se vyznají, nevedlo ovečky k následování církve jen slovo boží, nýbrž i zoufalství, zklamání, idiocie, frustrace a hledání stébla, jehož by se mohly chytit, něčeho, čehokoliv, co by jim pomohlo přežít život, který byl ve skomírající jidadské ekonomice čím dál méně k žití.”

It has been the means for our survival. It is our birthright. When, through indifference, inattention, incompetence, or fear of skepticism, we discourage children from science, we are disenfranchising them, taking from them the tools needed to manage their future.”
