“Tutto questo” pensava “non dovrebbe poter durare; però durerà, sempre; il sempre umano, beninteso, un secolo, due secoli...; e dopo sarà diverso, ma peggiore. Noi fummo i Gattopardi, i Leoni; quelli che ci sostituiranno saranno gli sciacalletti, le iene; e tutti quanti Gattopardi, sciacalli e pecore, continueremo a crederci il sale della terra”.”

“People are kept unaware of the reality, with the sweet and illusive candy of nationalism. They are made to believe in their bones that killing people in the name of sovereignty is the most glorious act of all - they are made to believe that the citizens of the neighboring country are their arch-enemies - they are made to believe that nationality is far greater than humanity. They are made to believe that surgical strikes against the nation across the border is a great patriotic deed - they are made to believe that raising wall and separating children from their parents are deeds of great glory. In short, politicians (not all) in the government keep doing whatever they desire, and the citizens choose to keep their mouth silent in obedience because that to them is the greatest act of patriotism. In short, to these spineless citizens, their country is always right and the neighboring country is always wrong - their country is always good and the neighboring country is always evil - their country is always on the side of ethics and morality, and the neighboring country is always on the side of moral degradation. And this has been going on since the rise of human civilization across the world. When will this change, one wonders! And the answer is now. You change - just you - you the individual - you the one human - and slowly but surely, little by little, the entire society will change.”

“কঠিন ধাঁচের মানুষদের যে কোমল অনুভূতি নেই, তা না। বেশিরভাগ কঠিন মানুষের সমস্যা হচ্ছে, তারা সেই কোমল অনুভূতিগুলো ঠিকঠাক প্রকাশ করতে পারেন না। কারো প্রতি প্রবল মায়া,স্নেহ, ভালবাসা থাকলে সেটি প্রকাশ করতে গিয়ে তারা সবকিছু এলোমেলো করে ফেলেন। ভালোবাসার বদলে শাসন দেখিয়ে ফেলেন। আনন্দের বদলে রাগ দেখিয়ে ফেলেন। ক্রমাগত এই বিব্রতকর অভিজ্ঞতা তাদের তখন আরো বেশি খোলসবন্দি করে ফেলে। তারা তখন তাদের জীবন কাটিয়ে দেন কঠিন মানুষের চেহারা নিয়ে।”
