“দুর্যোগ আর দুঃসময়ের দুটো রূপ আছে। একটা রূপ আমাদের সন্ত্রস্ত করে, অন্যটা একধরনের বিচিত্র আনন্দের জন্ম দেয়। মানুষ যতই বলুক, সে শুধুমাত্র শান্তির পূজারী নয়। তাহলে আদিম যুগ থেকে মানবসভ্যতা একটুও অগ্রসর হত না। আরামে গাছের ছায়ায় শুয়ে গান গেয়ে দিন কাটানোর সুযোগ ছেড়ে মানুষ চিরকাল বেরিয়ে পড়েছে অজানার হাতছানিতে। প্রায়ান্ধকার বনের মধ্যে দাঁড়িয়ে আমারও গা-ছমছম করা অনুভূতি আর আনন্দ একসঙ্গে হল।”

“Keep thinking back about what Mum said about being real and the Velveteen Rabbit book (though frankly have had enough trouble with rabbits in this particular house). My favorite book, she claims of which I have no memory was about how little kids get one toy that they love more than all the others, and even when its fur has been rubbed off, and it's gone saggy with bits missing, the little child still thinks it's the most beautiful toy in the world, and can't bear to be parted from it. That's how it works, when people really love each other, Mum whispered on the way out in the Debenhams lift, as if she was confessing some hideous and embarrassing secret. But, the thing is, darling, it doesn't happen to ones who have sharp edges, or break if they get dropped, or ones made of silly synthetic stuff that doesn't last. You have to be brave and let the other person know who you are and what you feel.”
