The Palestinians are the only nation in the world that feels with certainty that today is better than what the days ahead will hold. Tomorrow always heralds a worse situation.
Every beautiful poem is an act of resistance.
To be under occupation, to be under siege, is not a good inspiration for poetry.
Nothing is harder on the soul, than the smell of dreams, while they're evaporating.
I wish I were a candle in the darkness.
I thought poetry could change everything, could change history and could humanize, and I think that the illusion is very necessary to push poets to be involved and to believe, but now I think that poetry changes only the poet.
