:36:02
We heard a story.
:36:07
Sometimes we also heard
the Trojan victim speaking...
:36:12
through the mouth of the Greek Euripides.
:36:18
I'm looking for a Trojan poet.
:36:22
Troy didn't tell its story.
:36:25
I ask myself...
:36:28
does a land...
:36:32
that has great poets...
:36:35
have the right to conquer a people?
:36:40
Is the absence of poetry...
:36:46
sufficient reason to defeat them?
:36:54
Is poetry patriotic?
:37:01
Can a people be strong...
:37:04
without having its own poetry?
:37:10
I was a child of a people...
:37:13
that had not been recognized until then.
:37:18
And I wanted to speak
in the name of the absentee...
:37:23
in the name of the Trojan people.
:37:27
There's more inspiration and humanity...
:37:31
in defeat than there is in victory.
:37:38
Even in defeat there is poetry.
:37:43
And probably better poetry.
:37:47
If I belonged to the victor's camp...
:37:52
I'd demonstrate my support for the victims.
:37:57
Do you know why
we Palestinians are famous?
