6. We explain what we understand from the poet Mahmoud Darwish's saying: 'If the olive tree remembered its planter, the oil would turn into tears.'

7. We explain the beauty of the imagery in the phrase: 'Do you not see it like a crown adorning the mountain peaks?'

نُبَيِّنُ آراءَنا في قَوْلِ الأَعْدادِ : "غَرَسوا فَأَكَلْنَا، وَنَغْرِسُ فَيَأْكُلُونَ" .

8. We express our opinions on the ancestors' saying: 'They planted so we ate, and we plant so they eat.'
