Frases célebres de Ayaan Hirsi Ali

“Con nuestra abuela habiéndose quedado en Somalia, mi madre no tenía a nadie con quien compartir tareas y planes. No podía hacer nada por su cuenta. Se suponía que no debía salir a la calle sin estos nuevos guardianes nuestros, nuestros tíos, y nosotras tampoco. Para llamarlos, ella tuvo que ir al almacén de la esquina, con mi hermano de diez años, actuando como su hombre protector.”

Infidel (2007)
Original: «With our grandmother staying behind in Somalia, my mother had nobody with whom to share tasks and plans. She could do nothing on her own.

To phone them she had to scuttle down to the corner grocer, with my ten-year-old brother in tow acting as her protective male.»

Introduction
Infidel (2007)

“On September 16, 1978, there was an eclipse of the moon in Riyadh. Late one afternoon it became visible: a dark shadow moving slowly across the face of the pale moon in the darkening blue sky. There was a frantic knocking on the door. When I opened it, our neighbor asked if we were safe. He said it was the Day of Judgement, when the Quran says the sun will rise from the west and the seas will flood, when all the dead will rise and Allah's angels will weigh our sins and virtue, expediting the good to Paradise and the bad to Hell. Though it was barely twilight, the muezzin suddenly called for prayer--not one mosque calling carefully after another, as they usually did, but all the mosques clamoring all at once, all over the city. There was shouting across the neighborhood. When I looked outside I saw people praying in the street.”

7 News Sydney, (April 4, 2017)

“My mother saw herself as a victim. Once upon a time she had shaped her future and made decisions -- she had left Somalia for Aden, divorced her first husband and chosen my father--but at some point, it seemed, she lost hope. Many Somali women in her position would have worked, would have taken control of their lives, but my mother, having absorbed the Arab attitude that pious women should not work outside the home, felt that this would not be proper. It never occurred to her to go out and create a new life for herself, although she can't have been older than thirty-five or forty when my father left. Instead, she remained completely dependent. She nursed grievances; she was resentful; she was often violent; and she was always depressed.”

Ayaan Hirsi Ali

A culture that celebrates femininity and considers women to be the masters of their own lives is better than a culture that mutilates girls' genitals and confines them behind walls and veils or flogs or stones them for falling in love. A culture that protects women's rights by law is better than a culture in which a man can lawfully have four wives at once and women are denied alimony and half their inheritance. A culture that appoints women to its supreme court is better than a culture that declares that the testimony of a woman is worth half that of a man.
