Unfortunately the video is not embeddable or I would post it separately.
Françoise Sagan, Des bleus à l’âme (via danslarimedelanuit)
Qui rapportera ces paroles, Charlotte Delbo
Mille soleils splendides
Les cerf-volants de Kaboul
Aragon
‘This didn’t fall from the sky, it grew from roots.’
Vigil for the victims of the Quebec City mosque murders/rally against Islamaphobia in Montreal.
Speakers in French, English, Arabic (apologies for not crediting these quotes). All calling for the crowd to not wait for a body count. To take politicians and pundits to task for inciting hate. To accept and love citizens of every race, gender, sexual orientation, religion (and without religion).
‘If you cannot be united in your religion, be united in your humanity.’
It was at least -20 Celsius out.
