“Verses are not, as people think, feelings (those one has early enough) -- they are experiences. For the sake of a verse one must see many cities, men, and things, one must know the animals feel how birds fly, and know the gesture with which the little flowers open in the morning.”
Rilke Rainer Maria, The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge: A Novel

Buddhadeb Bosu (বুদ্ধদেব বসু), রবীন্দ্রনাথ : কথাসাহিত্য
