"When I was a child, I said I do not want to be a woman. Why, when it is so painful and so unhappy. But now that I’m grown, I’m proud to be who I am. But, for the sake of all of us, let us try and change what that means to be a woman.”
— Waris Dirie, Desert Flower  (via miss-rumphius)
"Whatever happens to the least of us, has an effect on all of us”
— Waris Dirie in Desert Flower(film)
