Share your favourite Kurdish quotes! From leaders, writers, guerilla/peshmerge, journalists, politicians, historians, singers, lyrics anything you want to! Serok Mustafa Barzani: I would die, I would split into pieces, I would run away, but never would i end in a prison, and never would i give the governor the possibility to decide over a life. I started my life with this philosophy. Death is a possibility, but never would I surrender. Death is a possibility, but never would i go to prison. Thus, there is only one possibility left – to stay in the mountains ![]() Heval Mazlum Dogan A big fish might eat a small fish, but a small fish will sooner or later get stuck in its throat |

“In line with our principles, we do not hijack airplanes, we do not take hostages, nor do we put bombs in cities. We do not do this even in Iran, despite the fact that if one does not commit this type of actions, no one even speaks about you. Neither do we fight directly against the United States to induce the socialist countries to support us, nor fight against the Soviet Union to garner support form the United States”. Serok Dr. Abdul Rahman Ghassemlou |

"If we were to show our real armed power, the results would be much worse." Serok Öcalan. That quote still applies to this day. Edit: Tevger, do you have more quotes from Apo? They're hard to find on the internet.

Kurdish history has been hidden away and destroyed. For example, the only sources we have that Saladin himself said he was Kurdish are from the libraries in Alexandria. Hidden away thousands of kilometres from where the Eyyubis came from. The Kurds themselves, however, have also been guilty. The Kurdish tribe leaders and upper class were quick to inhabit the ruling hegemonies and their traditions and language. We can actually thank the peasants and the workers for keeping alive the old traditions and our language and culture. |

Not a quote by a Kurdish leader. It is a quote by the 1st premier minister in India. “The Turks, who had only recently been fighting for their own freedom, crushed the Kurds, who sought theirs. It is strange how a defensive nationalism develops into an aggressive one, and a fight for freedom becomes one for dominion over others” —Nehru on the response to the Kurdish revolts in the early Turkish Republic. |

I can't remember actually. I heard it some days ago. Either from some hevals or from a Kurdish site. But it might have been during his trial case. |

Massoud Barzani: "We will not let the Turks interfere the issue of Kerkûk. I am not afraid of their (Turkey's) military or diplomatic power, because they interfere in matters that do not concern them. Kerkûk is an Kurdistani city of Kurdish identity, all geographic and historic facts prove that Kerkûk is part of South Kurdistan and Turkey has no right to interfere in this matter. If Turkey allows itself interfere in the matter of Kerkûk because of a few thousand Turkmen, we will do the same with regard to Diyarbakir (Amed) and other Kurdistani cities in Turkey because of 30 million Kurds." |

When people started chanting " Biji Qassimlo, Biji Qassimilo etc" in Mahabad he responded immediately by saying " la naw hizbi ema shaxparasti mamnoa"( within our party idolising a certain person is forbidden) " you can instead say Biji parti dmokrat". |
