Quote by Rebecca Wells

“Liminal moments. Those moments apart from time when you are gripped. Taken. When you are so fully absorbed in what you are doing that time ceases to exist. Those early morning birthday moments were liminal, Sidda thought. Momma knew how to embrace liminality inspite of (or maybe because of) her emotional acrobatics. Momma taught me rapture.”

Осознание того, что, возможно, в нашем восприятии есть пробелы, которые мы пока ещё не способны заполнить.”

“Our worst apprehension came true when the students of Kashmir refused to appear in the examination as their academic career was wasted. Since there were no academic sessions in Kashmir, We the Migrant students in both Jammu and Udhampur suffered due to inefficient, illogical and unreasonable university as our final year examination was cancelled for the year and postponed for the next year. As such, the students did complete the three-year graduation course in four years with a marks sheet for two years only and the marks assigned to the first year were calculated at an average of the final two years.”
