Ayaan Hirsi Ali Quotes

Where I Grew Up, Death Is A Constant Visitor. A Virus, Bacteria, A Parasite; Drought And Famine; Soldiers, And Torturers; Could Bring It To Anyone, Any Time. Death Comes Riding On Raindrops That Turned To Floods. It Catches The Imagination Of Men In Positions Of Authority Who Order Their Subordinates To Hunt, Torture, And Kill People They Imagine To Be Enemies. Death Lures Many Others To Take Their Own Lives In Order To Escape A Dismal Reality. For Many Women, Because Of The Perception Of Lost Honor, Death Comes At The Hands Of A Father, Brother, Or Husband. Death Comes To Young Women Giving Birth To New Life, Leaving The Newborn Orphaned In The Hands Of Strangers. For Those Who Live In Anarchy And Civil War, As In The Country Of My Birth, Somalia, Death Is Everywhere.
