“I love you.
I want to know what you are going through, if not now, then some day I want to sit with you and hear it. My imagination is not big enough to comprehend the emotions you are having. How small and insignificant all of this worldly stuff must seem to you. Can you talk? You must miss him intensely. You must think about him in every moment. Which is harder for you, being alone or being in the world of people? Life must feel surreal to you.”
― Christine Silverstein

“How are you?
I'm shattered, thanks, how are you? I walk aimlessly through the rooms of my house, what have you been up to? I have woken up in the middle of the last 240 nights in a heart-pounding sweat, what's new with you? I sometimes wish I would never wake up, have you been on vacation this year? I ache for the arms of my sweetheart to hold me tight, how's your family? I feel barren and useless and creepy and mundane, seen any good movies lately? I'm terrified that I'll feel this way forever, I like that sweater you're wearing. I keep seeing his body on the hospital gurney, don't you love this weather. My broken heart is in my throat, let's do lunch. I'm so completely and utterly tired of being sad, thanks, how are you?”
― Christine Silverstein

“You know what charm is: a way of getting the answer yes without having asked any clear question.”
― Albert Camus, The Fall

“तेजस्वी सम्मान खोजते नहीं गोत्र बतलाके,
पाते हैं जग से प्रशस्ति अपना करतब दिखलाके|
हीन मूल की ओर देख जग गलत कहे या ठीक,
वीर खींचकर ही रहते हैं इतिहासों में लीक”
― Ramdhari Singh Dinkar, रश्मिरथी
