“She was like the sun,
She knew her place in the world -
She would shine again regardless
of all the storms and changeable weather
She wouldn't adjust her purpose
for things that pass.”
― Nikki Rowe

“জ্যোৎস্না আরো ফুটিয়াছে, নক্ষত্রদল জ্যোৎস্নালোকে প্রায় অদৃশ্য, চারিধারে চাহিয়া মনে হয় এ সে পৃথিবী নয় এতদিন যাহাকে জানিতাম, এ স্বপ্নভূমি, এই দিগন্তব্যাপী জ্যোৎস্নায় অপার্থিব জীবেরা এখানে নামে গভীর রাত্রে, তারা তপস্যার বস্তু, কল্পনা ও স্বপ্নের বস্তু, বনের ফুল যারা ভালবাসে না, সুন্দরকে চেনে না, দিগ্বলয়রেখা যাদের কখনো হাতছানি দিয়া ডাকে নাই, তাদের কাছে এ পৃথিবী ধরা দেয় না কোনো কালেই।”
― Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay, আরণ্যক

“The metal door began to roll open as she held her breath. Its parts creaked like the bones of a giant roused from his slumber, like a Lazarus that had hidden his flaming heart within fireproof walls, patiently sleeping as the comatose do.

The smell hit her first. Mold. Dampness. Cold lifeless things.

Within, there was a darker sort of silence, as if the building had been holding its breath for so long it had forgotten how to breathe.”
― Angela Panayotopulos, The Wake Up
