Mona Eltahawy Quotes
My own feminist revolution evolved slowly, and traveled the world with me. To this day I have no idea what dissident professor or librarian placed feminist tests on the bookshelves at the university library in Jeddah, but I found them there. They filled me with terror.

Terror encourages you to jump, even when you don't know if you will ever land.
