Raheel Farooq
“Philosophers wonder when they do not know, artists when they do.”
Raheel Farooq

Yarro Rai
“But a man cannot just be a man anymore, can he? Freedom comes with so many price tags. I can’t just be a writer. I have to be a salesman too pretending just to sell a cup of coffee. Just to pay bills.”
Yarro Rai, Beyond Passion and Dreams: Two Souls. One Fire. No Survivors.
