Quotation of the Day for February 21, 2010



"In a country where advertising in glossy magazines seems years away, and a swimsuit competition as unlikely as lasting peace, Khalwat is no more than a brave, awkward woman celebrating some distant ideal of beauty. But maybe that's what Afghanistan needs more of: some hope, some dreams, some fake eyelashes, and a homegrown vogue or two."

- Kim Barker, in Kabul Makeover, from The Atlantic, (March 2010 issue).
