“Every time I create something, whether an idea or a work of art, initially, its supposed completion seems absolutely perfect to me. However the more I think about it, stare it down, the more it marinates in my soul over the hours, days, and weeks, the more flaws I start to find in it; and finally, the more I'm pressed to continue enhancing it. It essentially turns out that whatever thing a flawed and imperfect, human eye once thought was amazing begins to appear quite wretched. This is why, eternally, God cannot be impressed by mere talents or by mortal achievements. To perfect eyes, I imagine that great is not really that great; rather, humility is ultimately a human being's true greatness.”

“Complicated world, complicated words. The best way to communicate is silence, but even silence can be misunderstood. I stand here saying nothing. Why can’t you understand my silence? I’m standing here screaming my head off, but no sound is coming out. I have to accept that no one can hear me. I’m invisible, I’m soundless. Within my world, and only within my world do I exist, but out here, no one can see me, no one can hear me. I’m the only one here, screaming my head off, in the most beautiful, silent sound. Loud am I, when nothing can be heard. Silence is my language till everyone learns to hear. Listen and feel the silence within you, without you.”

“ঘরে ফিরে মনে হয় বড়ো বেশি কথা বলা হলো? চতুরতা, ক্লান্ত লাগে খুব? মনে হয় ফিরে এসে স্নান করে ধূপ জ্বেলে চুপ করে নীলকুঠুরিতে বসে থাকি? কী-বা আসে যায় লোকে বলবে মূর্খ বড়ো, লোকে বলবে সামাজিক নয়।”

“When we use silence, we know exactly what’s going on in our minds and just don’t share it, but others don’t know what we hide at that moment. We know how we feel and think, but we refuse to share these thoughts. If you have a certain belief, you identify as this certain box they have created to fit you in along with other people who share similar beliefs. The mind does not like complexity and wants to keep receiving information simple. When you remain silent, this quick and simple process that the mind does becomes complex, because it needs more data. Silence requires more analytical thinking which is difficult for a mind that is preoccupied with thousands of tasks and projects to come across daily. That’s the easiest job the mind can do. Based on previous experiences and personality samples that match yours, they will assume that you identify as a certain type, have certain beliefs or share similar thoughts to other people of that sample.”
