“যে জিনিস যত দুষ্প্রাপ্য মানুষের মনের কাছে তাহার মূল্য অনেক বেশি। এ কথা খুবই সত্য যে, এই মূল্য মানুষের মনগড়া একটি কৃত্রিম মূল্য, প্রার্থিত জিনিসের সত্যকার উৎকর্ষ বা অপকর্ষের সঙ্গে এর কোন সম্বন্ধ নাই। কিন্তু জগতের অধিকাংশ জিনিসের উপরই একটি কৃত্রিম মূল্য আরোপ করিয়াই তো আমরা তাকে বড় বা ছোট করি।”

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
― Steve Jobs

“The beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves, the resolution not to twist them to fit our own image.

“For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command nor faith a dictum. I am my own god. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.”
― Charles Bukowski
