“When "history" loses its "story," it becomes only an empty greeting in one voice.”
“When one has nothing to lose, one becomes courageous. We are timid only when there is something we can still cling to.”
“Words create the stories that become history and become unforgettable.”
“We are afraid of losing what we have, whether it's our life or our possessions and property. But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were written by the same hand.”
“The single story creates stereotypes, and the problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story.”
“Moments are history. If you have enough of them, they become a story.”
