“My friend, I went to the market and bought the Dark One.
You claim by night, I claim by day.
Actually I was beating a drum all the time I was buying him.
You say I gave too much; I say too little.
Actually, I put him on a scale before I bought him.
What I paid was my social body, my town body, my family body, and all my inherited jewels.
Mirabai says: The Dark One is my husband now.
Be with me when I lie down; you promised me this in an earlier life.”
― Mirabai, Mirabai: Ecstatic Poems

“Most of my life has been spent not understanding, and I can assure you, it was not easy.”
― Rilke

“Listen, and you will realize that we are made not from cells or from atoms. We are made from stories.”
― Mia Couto

“There is no purpose to life, you are here to achieve nothing. Whatever you feel is your supreme goal in life is a fiction created by you and the society you are living in, just to keep yourself busy in this purposeless creation.


You are born to die, everything else is pure nonsense.”
― Anupam S Shlok
