Additional quotes by Trinh T. Minh-ha

We create the dualism, not realizing that death, like life, is a process. The moment I am born, I enter the realm of death. Life and death are together one process, and we are dying every moment.

Words empty out with age. Die and rise again, accordingly invested with new meanings, and always equipped with a secondhand memory.

Substantial creative achievement demands not necessarily genius, but acumen, bent, persistence, time.
