“भोले बाबा, सिर्फ भगवान नहीं, बल्कि जीवन का एहसास है | पता है, इनके पास मैं सब भूल कर बच्चा सा बन जाता हु | इनको निहारता हु मैं बच्चा सा, और सुरक्षित महसूस करू इनके होने से |
मुझे आज भी याद है खीरगंगा के उस मंदिर के द्रश्य | वहां पहुँच कर शिव जी के लिए चन्दन घिसने में जो ख़ुशी मिली वो शायद मैं बयां भी नहीं कर सकता |
सिर्फ इतना कह सकता हु की, इनके पास मैं सब भूल कर बच्चा सा बन जाता हु”
“Brother, you men will never understand what a woman desires most in life. Fine clothes, delicious food, and honor are all incidental. What a woman wants is actually very simple: to be together for life. It's a pity that you men never understand, and I'm so glad I met him. I'm glad not for anything else, but that no matter how rich or poor our family was, he never had other thoughts. That fool has only had eyes for me from beginning to end, nothing else.

“By fetishizing youth and virginity, we're supporting a disturbing message: that really sexy women aren't women at all- they're girls.”

“Modernity, though, is often surprisingly difficult to "locate." Certainly modernity cannot be defined as the surpassing of earlier forms of brutality. Perhaps it can be claimed that modernity should be equated with the possession of superior technology. But this response may itself reflect the modern fetishization of technology, which make it a magical solution for human problems.”
