“You know why the battle of good vs evil is so one-sided, Malin? Because evil is better organised, better equipped and better paid. It is not monsters or yakas or demons we should fear. Organised collectives of evil doers who think they are performing the work of the righteous. That is what should make us shudder.”
― Shehan Karunatilaka, The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida

“All stories are recycled and all stories are unfair. Many get luck, and many get misery. Many are born to homes with books, many grow up in the swamps of war. In the end, all becomes dust. All stories conclude with a fade to black.”
― Shehan Karunatilaka, The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida

“You are not the you that you think you are. You are everything you have thought and done and been and seen.”
― Shehan Karunatilaka, The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida

“We’re constantly moving dust from one place to another, only to have it replaced by more dust — entropy always wins.”
― Pablo Picasso
