John Marsden
“We kill all the caterpillars, then complain there are no butterflies.”
John Marsden, The Dead of Night

Elsa Morante
“ Man, by his very nature, tends to give himself an explanation of the world into which he is born. And this is what distinguishes him from the other species. Every individual, even the least intelligent, the lowest of outcasts, from childhood on gives himself some explanation of the world. And with it he manages to live. And without it, he would sink into madness.”
Elsa Morante, History

Jibanananda Das
“মোর তরে পিছুডাক মাটি-মা, তোমার!
ডেকেছিল ভিজে ঘাস-হেমন্তের হিম মাস, জোনাকির ঝাড়!
আমারে ডাকিয়াছিল আলেয়ার লাল মাঠ-শ্মশানের খেয়াঘাট আসি!
কঙ্কালের রাশি,
দাউদাউ চিতা-
কত পূর্বজাতকের পিতামহ-পিতা,
সর্বনাশ ব্যসন-বাসনা,
কত মৃত গোক্ষুরার ফণা,
কত তিথি, কত যে অতিথি,
কত শত যোনিচক্রস্মৃতি
করেছিল উতলা আমারে!
আধো আলো-আধেক আঁধারে
মোর সাথে মোর পিছে এল তারা ছুটে
মাটির বাটের চুমা শিহরি উঠিল মোর ঠোটে-রোমপুটে!
ধু ধু মাঠ-ধানক্ষেত-কাশফুল-বুনোহাস-বালুকার চর
বকের ছানার মতো যেন মোর বুকের উপর
এলোমেলো ডানা মেলে মোর সাথে চলিল নাচিয়া!

:সেদিন এ ধরণীর”
Jibanananda Das, ঝরা পালক

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Talent develops in solitude, character develops in the stream of life.”

“ইউরোপে cold blooded খুন হয়, ভারতবর্ষে কোল্ড-ব্লাডেড্ বিয়ে হয়।”
