- I have lectured at the U.N. and travelled widely, giving lectures on human rights and gender inequalities in universities. But this is a life I do not wish to live. I don't want to be a showcase, I want to be in a battlefield where I can stand beside the oppressed and the poor. -- Taslima Nasrin
- There are quite a lot of YouTube clips of me that have gone viral.
