Quotes by Indra Das (?)

“Intimacy lies in the body and the soul, in scent, in touch and taste and sound. A man whose name you don’t know can tell you a tale to move you to tears, just by filling and emptying his lungs, by moving his tongue and lips, his fingers. Even after, you might never know him.”
― Indra Das, The Devourers

“To tell stories of the past to children who walk into the future is a task both noble and taxing.”

“One question, foreigner. How do you speak my language so well?'
'A dead man taught me, after I ate him. Just as the Christ taught his disciples the love of their God after they ate him.'
'You're a strange people, you white folk...”
