Marjane Satrapi Quotes

People Don't Know Anymore Why We've Had Eight Years Of War. Why Their Children Have Died ... This Entire War Was Just A Big Setup To Destroy Both The Iranian And The Iraqi Armies. The Former Was The Most Powerful In The Middle East In 1980, And The Latter Represented A Real Danger To Israel. The West Sold Weapons To Both Camps And We, We Were Stupid Enough To Enter Into This Cynical Game ... Eight Years Of War For Nothing! So Now The State Names Streets After Martyrs To Flatter The Families Of The Victims. In This Way, Perhaps, They'll Find Some Meaning In All This Absurdity.
