Power Of Words Quotes

“The words we speak act as seeds.”

“It was very nice to realize how we can cancel the space that apparently divides people, and share with them our stories as if they were part of the same experience, bringing them closer to us. And I think that's the beauty of a story: you have the chance to live it somehow through the feelings of the storyteller.”

“Make no mistake about it; it shall be done unto you according to your faith and your words.”

“There are more benefits to happiness. The power of happiness enables more success in marriages, added friendships, higher incomes, and better work performance. With more friends, happy people have a superior support system. They have an easier time navigating through life because their optimistic outlook eases pain, sadness, and grief. They smile more and engage in more in-depth and more meaningful conversations.”

“When my kids tell me "I can't do this dad", I smile and say it's okay. We sit down and we talk about it, I share some of my experiences with them and also let them know it's okay to fail but it is not okay to give before you have tried. One of the primary roles of a parent is to lend your kids some of your confidence enabling them to get their own.”

“কোনওদিন বাবা বলে, দেখ মানুষের শক্তি কেমন! সে এমন সঙ্গীত তৈরি করতে পারে যার তরঙ্গ শুনেই তােমার মনে বৃষ্টি নামে, সে এমন বাক্য উচ্চারণ করে শােনার পরেই তােমার মনে দৃশ্যকল্প জেগে ওঠে। এমন হতে পারে কোনওদিন তুমি হয়তাে-বা খোঁড়া হয়ে গেছ কিংবা দিনের পর দিন কারাগারের অন্তরালে দিন কাটাচ্ছ, কিন্তু তুমি চোখ খােলা রেখে চিন্তা করলেও হয়তাে-বা এই গ্রামের পথটাকে দেখতে পাবে। তােমার মনে হবে তুমি সেই পথ দিয়ে আবারও হেঁটে যাচ্ছ। ঠিক এমনিভাবে, এমনিভাবে তােমার গায়ে শিশিরকণা ঝরে পড়ছে, ভােরের আলাে তােমার মুখে উদ্ভাসিত হচ্ছে, মৃদু বাতাসে তােমার রাতের দুঃস্বপ্ন মুছে যাচ্ছে। তুমি জানাে এসবই বিভ্রম আসলে, কিন্তু তােমার মনে হবে। তুমি সেই দৃশ্যকল্পের জগতে ঘুরতে ঘুরতে কাঁদবে এবং চোখ মুছবে, আবার কাঁদবে এবং চোখ মুছবে। কিন্তু দেখবে এই বিভ্রমের জন্যে তােমার কোনও গ্লানি হবে না। বরং এক অনাবিল আনন্দে তােমার মন ভরে উঠবে। আসলে আমরা এক-একটা স্মৃতি নির্মাণ করি সে স্মৃতিকে হত্যা করবার জন্যে, কিন্তু তা স্মৃতি-ঘরে জমা থাকে আর তােমার সামনে যাওয়ার গ্লানিকে ভুলিয়ে দেয়ার জন্যে কখনও সে ঘর ছেড়ে বেরিয়ে আসে।”

“Language is a living being that grows and dies. It can be healthy, sick, nurtured, or malnourished. It all depends on those using it. Just as in you are what you eat, it is even more precise to say you are what you say, what you read, and what you write…language can turn into a prison or a set of wings that can help us fly. It all depends on how we use it to challenge, expand, and question every single word we utter or write. Language is the beginning and the end of what makes us human. The language we do remains alive way after we depart this world. Language is in our mothers’ first lullaby, the first time we tell someone ‘I love you’, and we often talk about the significance of someone’s last words before they died. Therefore, we cannot decolonize anything, least of all knowledge production, if we do not examine why we say the things we say and how we get to internalize and express the things that shape our lives. In fact, language is truly the only home that remains even in exile when all else is lost.”

“Families/Relationships don't fall apart by accident, they stop working and functioning properly when someone stop's playing their role. We live in a time when it is easy to point the finger at someone else and highlight what they are doing wrong but before you do that ask yourself are you handling business? Are you doing everything to the best of your ability?”

“Stories have no beginning and no end, only doors through which one may enter them. A story is an endless labyrinth of words, images and spirits, conjured up to show us the invisible truth about ourselves. A story is, after all, a conversation between the narrator and the reader, and just as narrators can only relate as far as their ability will permit, so too readers can only read as far as what is already written in their souls.”
