Noorilhuda quotes
We, men, who work hard to get somewhere in life, to make something of ourselves in life, to mean something to someone, to have what our ancestors never had…..We, men, who toil for a name, respect, livelihood, who are pitied, mocked all for the love of a woman……We men who need to have a coherent existence, and oneness of spirit with a single soul; We, sir, do not deserve such an audience as Ms. Adams. ” – Pritchard’s letter
