Maria’s Quotes

“আশ্চর্য মানুষের মন। সে যে কখন কি চায় তা নিজেও বলতে পারে না। কিসে তার সুখ আর কিসে তার অসুখ এর সত্যিকার জবাব সে নিজেও দিতে পারে না কোনদিন।”
― Zahir Raihan, শেষ বিকেলের মেয়ে

“But books were different. They had lots of blanks. Blanks between words and even between lines. I could squeeze myself in there and sit, or walk, or scribble down my thoughts. It didn’t matter if I had no idea what the words meant. Turning the pages was half the battle.”
― Won-pyung Sohn, Almond
