“All major religious traditions accept that suffering and death are simply part of life. The deep radicalism of humanitarian action is its belief that people are not made to suffer.”
― A Bed for the Night: Humanitarianism in Crisis

“ب�� همان اندازه که متعهدیم به دیگران بگوییم چه چیز قابل قبول است، همانقدر تعهد داریم که نگوییم چه چیز قابل قبول نیست”
― Swimming in a Sea of Death: A Son's Memoir
― Swimming in a Sea of Death: A Son's Memoir
“Perhaps we become accustomed to our grief and, as it becomes increasingly familiar, increasingly part of the emotional landscape, it becomes a dullness. But there is no closure, no forgetting. One mourns those one has loved who have died until one joins them. It happens soon enough.”
