Roman Payne
“In Sanskrit, there exists no word for ‘The Individual’ (L’Individu). En Grèce antique, il n’y avait aucun mot pour dire ‘Devoir’ (Duty). In French, the word for ‘Wife’ is the same as the word for ‘Woman.’ En anglais, nous n’avons aucun mot semblable à l’exquise ‘Jouissance!”
― Roman Payne

Suhas Mahesh
“Dear God,
make him hang out
with other women more.
He does not seem to realize
what a catch I am.”
― Suhas Mahesh, How to Love in Sanskrit
