Quotes by Waris Dirie

  • "Africa is different. I was young. I had nothing to worry about. I had my family, I had my animals, I had my simple life. It was beautiful."
  • "I felt not complete with myself as a woman. Some days I felt so powerless."
  • "In Somalia we don't have clocks so we don't care what time it is. But in the West, everything is money-money, power, sucking, sucking away. It is never enough."
