“இனியபுனல் அருவிதவழ் இன்பமலைச் சாரலிலே
கனிகுலவும் மரநிழலில்
கரம்பிடித்து உகந்ததெல்லாம் கனவுதானோடி - சகியே நினைவு தானோடி..!

புன்னைமரச் சோலையிலே பொன்னொளிரும் மாலையிலே என்னைவரச்சொல்லி அவர்
கன்னல்மொழி பகர்ந்ததெல்லாம் சொப்பனந்தானோடி - அந்த அற்புதம் பொய்யோடி..!

கட்டுகாவல் தான்கடந்து கள்ளரைப்போல் மட்டில்லாத
காதலுடன் கட்டி முத்தம்
ஈந்ததெல்லாம் நிகழ்ந்ததுண்டோடி நாங்கள் மகிழ்ந்ததுண்டோடி..!”

“Stars! It looks as if you're winking amused at the idiocy of the people on this earth. You have every reason to laugh. You saw the battle that happened a hundred years ago, and the blood that flooded the ground a long time afterwards. You wonder why there should be so much enmity among human beings, so much carnage and bloodshed. And why this should be known as heroism!"
"Even after a man has been dead a hundred years, people continue to hate him. This is an enemy's pallipadai where people gather to torture the living in name of the dead. Stars in the sky! Why wouldn't you laugh! Laugh!”
― Kalki, பொன்னியின் செல்வன், பாகம் 1: புது வெள்ளம்
