“Death, however, does itch. It itches all the time. It is always with us, scratching at some inner door. Mirroring, softly, barely audibly, just under the membrane of consciousness. Hidden in disguise, leaking out in a variety of symptoms.

“Two thirds of the work in the world is done by women. Women own 1 percent of the assets. Young women are sold into prostitution, forced labour, premature marriage, forced to have children they don't want or they can't support. They're abused, raped, beaten up. Domestic violence is supposed to be a cultural problem. They are the first victims of war, fundamentalism, conflict, recession. And young women who have access to education and health care and have resources think that everything was done, they don't have to worry.” ThinkingWorldWantFirstsChildrenTwoWarDoneProblemCareYoungWorrySupportViolenceConflictPercentResourcesThirdsVictimAccessSupposed To BeHealth CareLabourAssetsYoung WomenFundamentalismBeatenDomestic ViolenceProstitutionMen WomenRecessionsPrematureAccess To EducationVictims Of War Author:Isabel Allende

“In the old days, land was important as the giver of all things. That period is gone now. Technology and brainpower are all that matters and yet conflicts over land, specially one like on the India-China border, that yields nothing, continue.
