“Oricât de mult am vrea să credem altcumva, iubirea universală şi bunăstarea tuturor speciilor laolaltă sunt, din punct de vedere evoluţionist, concepte fără sens.”

“Writers imagine that they cull stories from the world. I'm beginning to believe that vanity makes them think so. That it's actually the other way around. Stories cull writers from the world. Stories reveal themselves to us. The public narrative, the private narrative - they colonize us. They commission us. They insist on being told. Fiction and nonfiction are only different techniques of story telling. For reasons that I don't fully understand, fiction dances out of me, and nonfiction is wrenched out by the aching, broken world I wake up to every morning.”

“ഒരു നല്ല മുസ്ലീമും ഒരു നല്ല കമ്യൂണിസ്റ്റുകാരനും നല്ല ഹിന്ദുവുമൊക്കെയാകുന്നതില് ഒരു തിന്മയുണ്ട് കാലത്തിനോടെന്ന പോലെ സ്വന്തത്തോടും അയാള് നീതി ചെയ്യുന്നില്ല എന്നതാണത്. താന് ജീവിക്കുന്ന കാലത്തിനോടാണ് ഒരുവന്റെ ആദ്യത്തെ പ്രതിബദ്ധത. എല്ലാ മതത്തിലേയും മൌലികവാദികള്ക്ക് പ്രതിബദ്ധത വേറൊരു കാലത്തിനോടാണ്. വേറൊരു കാലത്തുണ്ടായിട്ടുള്ള തത്വശാസ്ത്രത്തിനോടോ ഗ്രന്ഥങ്ങളോടോ ആണ്.”
