“We are all running towards a destination which doesn't exist. On our way, dogs of life keep barking at us where we respond to some and some we throw stones at. Every dog teaches a lesson we are better off without. Every knife stabs a little deeper than we deserve. Every bruise stays a lot longer than it is meant to. Encumbered by forceful lessons of life we fight for the air of elation from the breaths we take to covert them into the moments of our real existence. Everything starts with life's tyrannical dominance and ends with our impelled submissiveness. We are the puppets of external circumstances and still we believe it's all on the inside. We should be laughing at our plight, someone has framed it with such sublimity. But all we do is ache at every shred of it because that's what keeps it alive.”

“সরল বিশ্বাসের মূল্য তার সারল্যেই। কিছু পাব বলে আমরা ঈশ্বরে বিশ্বাস করি না, ঈশ্বরে বিশ্বাস করতে ভাল লাগে বলেই তা করি। যদি কেউ অন্যরকম করে, তবে তা দোকানদারি। বাবার সম্পত্তি পাব, তাই বাবাকে ভালবাসি-এ কেমন কথা?”
