Ed Said's last words
His daughter Najla: "..in his last days my father wept openly for Palestine and his loss of articulacy and energy to write and write and write. he encouraged me, from his bed, to "continue the struggle, continue...get over your petty personal differences with your colleagues and write and perform and continue continue unceasingly. its in your hands" this was meant for our entire generation and it is important for me to convey this to you because I certainly can't shoulder the burden myself."
