If God is the Creator, if God englobes every single thing in the universe, then God is everything, and everything is God. God is the earth and the sky, and the tree planted in the earth under the sky, and the bird in the tree, and the worm in the beak of the bird, and the dirt in the stomach of the worm. God is He and She, straight and gay, black and white and red - yes even that..and green and blue and all the rest. And so, to despise me for loving women or you for being a Red who made love with a woman, would be to despise not only His own creations but also to hate Himself. My God is not so stupid as that. Hillary Jordan
About This Quote

In this quote, Mohamed Mahmoud Darwish is expressing his belief that God is everything and everything is God. He encourages the reader to love every part of the world and person they meet, because God has created them all. This idea of loving all the world’s inhabitants may seem a bit extreme, but it also represents a basic understanding that God can be found in any form or style. In fact, if we look closely enough at all the things around us, we can see God Himself.
