exceprts from media I hold close to my heart.

  • Mother (2018) - “Migratory birds fly across oceans on journeys that are sometimes tens thousands of kilometers long. And yet, they never lose their way. Rain or snow, day or night, they fly over chilly oceans without any maps or landmarks to follow as reference. But they always reach their destination, no matter what. Because they have maps and directions, all in their heads.”
  • Mahmoud Darwish on Journal of an Ordinary Grief “The mere act of searching is proof that I refuse to get lost in my loss.”
  • Franz Kafka on Letters for Millena - “Writing letters is actually an intercourse with ghosts and by no means just with the ghost of the addressee but also with one’s own ghost, which secretly evolves inside the letter one is writing or even in a whole series of letters, where one letter corroborates another and can refer to it as witness.”
