“Those drunk on love, language and culture, need no artificial stimulant. Only the half-lovers and the half-dead, chase booze, drugs and institutions.”
Abhijit Naskar, Abigitano: El Divino Refugiado

“English is not my mothertongue,
english is my brother tongue -
spanish is not my mothertongue,
spanish is my cousin tongue -
turkish is not my mothertongue,
