“लेकिन आदमी हँसता है, दुख-दर्द सभी में आदमी हँसता हैं। जैसे हँसते-हँसते आदमी की प्रसन्नाता थक जाती है वैसे ही कभी-कभी रोते-रोते आदमी की उदासी थक जाती है और आदमी करवट बदलता है। ताकि हँसी की छाँह में कुछ विश्राम कर फिर वह आँशुओं की कड़ी धूप में चल सके।”

“We must not repeat the same mistake. Putin will not last forever, and we have no way of knowing what the nature of his departure will be-voluntary, forced, or natural. But from our history we can imagine how great the temptation may be to overlook at first small, the more major, transgressions on the part of whomever we are backing. The new leader gives voice to our interests, you can imagine someone saying, our political outlook. In order, for example, not to let the populists come to power, he may tweak, tamper, and tinker a little. He may make use of the national television channel. But what of it? He'll be telling it how it is, he's our guy, after all, and he'll only get rid of people if they are really asking for it. That's why, as a reminder of mistakes in the past and a pointer for the future, I would very much like this sense of karmic retribution to be shared by as many people as possible. People who, like me back then, turned a blind eye to the lawlessness, the lies, and the hypocrisy and saw it all as a case of the ends justifying the means and as necessary backing for a particular team.”
