I come from a generation that laughed in company and wept alone. We forgave when we were with friends and fought our battles in solitude. We kept our heads down in the street and screamed when no one could hear. We were defeated in the marketplace and rich in our dreams. Today I understood that being alone was the trouble. Together, we can free a country. Together. #جاویدشاه (Long live the Shah)
