Yogesh Maitreya
“You never know in what shape or form the caste instinct inside you is channelised into an act. To read about caste discrimination, to think that it's bad, to think that it should be abolished is very easy and comforting, but to prohibit oneself from practising it is very difficult.”
Yogesh Maitreya, Flowers on the Grave of Caste

Virginia Woolf
“the phrase comes to him before the emotion; but we must add that he is nevertheless a born writer, a man who detests meals, servants, ease, respectability or anything that gets between him and his art; who has kept his freedom when most of his contemporaries have long ago lost theirs; who is ashamed of nothing but being ashamed; who says whatever he has it in his mind to say, and has taught himself an accent, a cadence, indeed a language, for saying it in which, though they are not English, but Irish, will give him his place among the lesser immortals of our tongue.”
