Yavanika Sriram
இதம்

நூலின் இருபக்கங்களையும் பறவையின் இறகுபோல விரித்து
நீங்கள் வாசிக்கும்போது அதன் தண்டுவடம் மெலிதாக
நடுங்கத் துவங்கினால் சற்று நேரம் மார்பின் மீது கவிழ்த்து வாஞ்சையுடன் அதன் முதுகை
வருடுவது இதமானது.”
Yavanika Sriram, கிடக்கட்டும் கழுதை [Kidakattum Kazhuthai]

Jessica Au
“When we were younger, my mother had regularly read to us from a book of Japanese fables, having saved nothing from her own childhood. One story had been about a mountain, whose peak was surrounded by a ring of clouds, like a necklace, and who had been so beautiful that the greatest of all mountains had fallen in love with her. But the mountain with the clouds had not returned the other’s affections, and instead had pined after a smaller, flatter mountain below. The great mountain had been so shocked and enraged by this, it had erupted into a volcano, covering the skies with smoke and darkness and pain for many days. I remember for some reason feeling incredibly moved by this story, the love of the beautiful cloud mountain for the kinder, smaller one, the torment of the volcano, as if, at that age, their passions had seemed more real to me than any human ones.”
Jessica Au, Cold Enough for Snow

Rainer Maria Rilke
“A year doesn't matter; ten years are nothing. To be an artist means not to compute or count; it means to ripen as the tree, which does not force its sap, but stands unshaken in the storms of spring with no fear that summer might not follow. It will come regardless. But it comes only to those who live as though eternity stretches before them, carefree, silent, and endless.”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

தேவதேவன்
“கவிதை ஒரு சொல் விளையாட்டோ வெறும் அழகியல் மாத்திரமோ அல்ல. அது தன்னுள் கொண்டிருக்கும் இலட்சியம் அபரிமிதமானது. கவிதைகளில் வெளிப்படுவது நமது ஆளுமைதான் என்று தெரிந்து கொண்டால் நாம் நமது ஆளுமை வளர்ச்சியில் நாட்டம் கொள்ள தொடங்கிவிடுவோம்.

ஆளுமை வளர்ச்சி என்பது இடையறாத மெய்மை அறிதலன்றி வேறொன்றும் இல்லை என்ற நிலைக்கு கொண்டு வந்துவிடும். எனக்கு புனைவுகள் அற்ற எளிமை மிக முக்கியமாகத் தோன்றும்.”
தேவதேவன்

Amos Oz
“No man is an island, said John Donne, but I humbly dare to add: No man or woman is an island, but every one of us is a peninsula, half attached to the mainland, half facing the ocean – one half connected to family and friends and culture and tradition and country and nation and sex and language and many other things, and the other half wanting to be left alone to face the ocean.

I think we ought to be allowed to remain peninsulas. Every social and political system that turns each of us into a Donnean island and the rest of humankind into an enemy or a rival is a monster. But at the same time every social and political and ideological system that wants to turn each of us into no more than a molecule of the mainland is also a monstrosity. The condition of peninsula is the proper human condition. That's what we are and that's what we deserve to remain.”
Amos Oz, How to Cure a Fanatic
