“You see, Klara," I said, "you think that a lie is a lie, and it would seem that you're right. But you aren't. I can invent anything, make a fool of someone, carry out hoaxes and practical jokes- and I don't feel like a liar and I don't have a bad conscience. These lies, if you want to call them that, represent me as I really am. With such lies I'm not simulating anything, with such lies I'm in fact speaking the truth. But there are things I can't lie about. There are things I've penetrated, whose meaning I've grasped, that I love and take seriously. I can't joke about these things. If I did, I'd humiliate myself.”

“All at once I understood that it had only been my illusion that we ourselves saddle events and control their courses; the truth is that they aren't our stories at all, that they are foisted on us from somewhere outside; that in no way do they represent us; that we are not to blame for the strange paths they follow; that they are themselves directed from who knows where by who knows what strange forces.”
― Milan Kundera, Laughable Loves

“জীবন জিনিসটা এমন, সামান্য একটা অভাব সেখানে সবকিছু তছনছ করে দিতে পারে। এক একজনের কাছে এক একটা দিক বড়, সেখানে সে কোন ঘাটতির কথা ভাবতেই পারেনা, সূতোর সামান্য একটু টানে সবকিছু যেখানে হুড়মুড় করে ধসে পড়ে”

“আমি আবারও স্পষ্ট জানিয়ে দিতে চাই যে মৃত্যু সম্পর্কে আমার অবস্থান খুব পরিষ্কার, আমি এর ঘোর বিরোধী।”
