“If you expect nothing from somebody you are never disappointed.”
― Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

“But nothing could be held true for the rest of one's life, every coveted thing in the end was maya, illusion, a myth, and this the great sages of India had always understood --- little was real. We were put on this earth transitorily; we deposited our genes in offspring; deluded ourselves that we would be missed when we were gone; pretended that money, wealth, titles, and land were to be desired. But every such thing was ephemeral, prone to change. The only reason to live was love.”
― Indu Sundaresan, The Splendor of Silence

“If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.”
― Mark Twain

“শেষবার তার সাথে যখন হয়েছে দেখা মাঠের উপরে
বলিলাম: ‘একদিন এমন সময়
আবার আসিয়ো তুমি, আসিবার ইচ্ছা যদি হয়!–
পঁচিশ বছর পরে!”
― Jibanananda Das
