Musafir Quotes

“Ibu bapak tani—ibu bapak tanah air—akan meratapi putera-puterinya yang terkubur dalam udara terbuka di atas rumput hijau, di bawah naungan langit biru di mana awan putih berarak dan angin bersuling di rumpun bambu. Kemudian tinggallah tulang belulang putih yang bercerita pada musafir lalu, “ Di sini pernah terjadi pertempuran. Dan aku mati di sini.”
― Pramoedya Ananta Toer, Percikan Revolusi Subuh

“kematian yang ia buru kini lesap di matamu,
direbahkan tubuhnya dikuburan dangkal jiwa kekasih, yang ia gali dengan tangan-tangan takdirnya sendiri

ia adalah musafir malang yang pernah mengistirahkan pengembaraan di negeri anganmu
dirahim hatimu,kekasih
pernah dirambahnya ladang-ladang luka yang purba
kemudian ditanaminya sekebun pohon2 cinta yang rimbun
tempat kelak engkau dapat berjalan dibawah rindangnya, meneduhkan rindumu ditiap cabang-cabangnya”
― firman nofeki

“A Musafir in life
today I am here on
this side of the border
tomorrow I will be there
on the other side.

Searching for meaning
with my pen and journal
in my bag, I keep drifting
from here to there and
from there to here

A Musafir in life
there is no final home for me
no final destination awaits me
To keep on traveling is
my life's story
To keep on searching is
my life's purpose”

“Every time and place in each of our journeys, has a lot of hidden knowledge, depending on how we can find the gap to reach that knowledge.”

“You are Maya
I am the Musafir
You are the Poem
I am the Poet
You are the Symphony
I am the Musician
You are Art
I am the Artist.”
― Avijeet Das

“A writer's life is different from the life of a normal man's life. A writer cannot settle down at one place. He has to keep traveling and drifting from one place to another. Because his travels give meaning and substance to his stories and poetry, he must keep on traveling. The people he meets and the places he visits, give unique perspectives to him to think, reflect and write about.

A writer does not belong to one village, one city, one town, or one country. A writer belongs to the world.”
― Avijeet Das

“We are a team
A beautiful dream
Like stones in a stream
A literary realm
Inspiring everybody to dream!"

~ Call me the Professor or Poet or Avijeet or Musafir. It does not matter.

What matters is that We all must Win!”
― The Professor, Avijeet, Poet, Musafir

“The rich won't win. They are pampered blokes. We have daily struggles. They don't even know what struggle is in life. We face adversities on a daily basis. They lead a life of luxury. We have to make choices for our survival. They don't know that they have to make any kind of choices. We have to take care of our families. They don't care. We have to fight on a daily basis to earn our pennies. They squander their money on stupid luxuries. We fight for survival. They give a damn to us and the world.
