Nature is woman's best friend,' she [Yasmina] often said. 'If you're having troubles, you just swim in the water, stretch out in a field, or look up at the stars. That's how a woman cures her fears'.

I am intelligent enough to be critical towards the West and take what I need and reject what is bad for me.
