“സങ്കടങ്ങളിലാണ്, നന്മയുടെ വെളിച്ചം എവിടെയാണെന്ന് നാം തിരിച്ചറിയുന്നത്, ആ തിരിച്ചറിവാണ് നാളെ നമ്മളെ നയിക്കേണ്ടത്.”
― Sathyan Anthikkad, Eeswaran Mathram Sakshi

“Zweisamkeit’ is the feeling of being alone even when you’re with other people.” Simon turned to look in his husband’s eyes. “Before I met you, I felt this constantly. I felt it with my family, my friends, and every boyfriend I ever had. I felt it so often that I thought this was the nature of living. To be alive was to accept that you were fundamentally alone.” Simon’s eyes were moist. “I know I’m impossible, and I know you don’t care about German words or marriage. All I can say is, I love you and thank you for marrying me anyway.”

“ദൈവം കണിശക്കാരനായ മാര്‍വാഡിയെപ്പോലെയാണ്. കൊടുക്കുന്നവര്‍ക്ക് കൊടുക്കുന്ന അളവില്‍ മാത്രമേ തിരിച്ചുതരൂ. അപ്പോള്‍ നമ്മള്‍ ചെയ്യേണ്ടത് കൂടുതല്‍ നല്‍കുക എന്നതാണ്.”
― Sathyan Anthikkad, Eeswaran Mathram Sakshi

“Ammachi, when I come to the end of a book and I look up, just four days have passed. But in that time I’ve lived through three generations and learned more about the world and about myself than I do during a year in school. Ahab, Queequeg, Ophelia, and other characters die on the page so that we might live better lives.”
