The importance of poetry is not measured, finally, by what the poet says but by how he says it.

Palestinian people are in love with life.

I love women whose hidden desires make horses put an end to their lives at the threshold

I have learned and dismantled all the words in order to draw from them a single word: Home.

On this earth there is that which deserves life.

Poetry is perhaps what teaches us to nurture the charming illusion: how to be reborn out of ourselves over and over again, and use words to construct a better world, a fictitious world that enables us to sign a pact for a permanent and comprehensive peace ... with life.

The metaphor for Palestine is stronger than the Palestine of reality.
