“Our exile was not in vain at all, and we didn’t go into exile in vain. Their dead will die without regretting a thing. And the living can bequeath the calm wind, learn to open the windows, see what the past makes of their present, and weep slowly and patiently lest the enemies hear the broken ceramics within them. Martyrs, you were right, the road to the house is more beautiful than the house, despite the flowers’ betrayal, but the windows don’t look out on the sky of the heart and exile is exile, here or there. We did not go into exile in vain at all, and our exile wasn’t in vain. And land like language is inherited” (On the last evening on this earth, Darwish)
