Thomas SankaraI can hear the roar of women's silence
About This Quote
I can hear the roar of women's silence. In my life, I have been able to see what is most important and that is my family. The men who have broken my heart have been men who have been my close friends. I have been hurt by the actions of the people I most trusted. I would be lying if I said that I haven’t been hurt by those who are supposed to be my friends as well as those whom I love.
