Martel Quotes

“Dare I say I miss him? I do. I miss him. I still see him in my dreams. They are nightmares mostly, but nightmares tinged with love.

― Yann Martel, Life of Pi

“Life will defend itself no matter how small it is.”
― Yann Martel, Life of Pi

“How true is that necessity is the mother of invention, how very true.”
― Yann Martel, Life of Pi
