“परिवर्तन समय बदल गया है अब लड़कियां भी मन की कर सकती हैं जो चाहे खेल सकती हैं जो चाहे पढ़ सकती हैं जो चाहे पहन सकती हैं बल्कि नौकरी तक कर सकती हैं पर झाड़ू, पोछा, बर्तन और रसोई के बाद।”
Lalit Kumar Mishra, वर्जिन: काव्य संग्रह

Agha Shahid Ali
“Snowmen

My ancestor, a man
of Himalayan snow,
came to Kashmir from Samarkand,
carrying a bag
of whale bones:
heirlooms from sea funerals.
His skeleton
carved from glaciers, his breath
arctic,
he froze women in his embrace.
His wife thawed into stony water,
her old age a clear
evaporation.

This heirloom,
his skeleton under my skin, passed
from son to grandson,
generations of snowmen on my back.
They tap every year on my window,
their voices hushed to ice.

No, they won’t let me out of winter,
and I’ve promised myself,
even if I’m the last snowman,
that I’ll ride into spring
on their melting shoulders.”
Agha Shahid Ali

Manav Kaul
“यह जीवन असल में एक ख़त है—किसी के लिए। पूरा जी लेने के बाद हम चाहते हैं कि बुढ़ापे में एक दिन हम बरामदे में किसी बरगद की छाया तले बैठे हुए चाय पी रहे हों। हल्की मुलायम धूप हो और उस दिन काँपते हाथों से हम अपना जीवन जो एक ख़त-सा किसी लिफ़ाफ़े में है, उसे खोलें और उस किसी को वह ख़त पढ़कर सुनाएँ। उसे हमारा जीवन एक काल्पनिक कहानी लगेगा और हम उस कल्पना में—किसी जंगल में चलते हुए—उस कहानी के सारे झूठ उसके साथ फिर जी लेंगे।”
Manav Kaul, Tumhare Baare Mein

Sheba Karim
“Noreen’s therapist had once quoted a writer, comparing grief to having a broken leg that doesn’t heal right and still hurts when it’s damp outside, but eventually you learn to dance with a limp. It was a weird analogy, but it had stuck.”
Sheba Karim, The Marvelous Mirza Girls: A Young Adult Romance of Grief, Family Scandal, and Finding Home in India

कृष्णा सोबती
“शाबाश है बेटी, तेरी शाबाश ! बनवारी की ओर से तो बड़ी सुरखरू हूँ । धन्य है तेरी माँ जन्मनेवाली जिसने तुम्हें जन्म दे इस घर के लिए ऐसा धर्म कमाया”
Krishna Sobti, मित्रो मरजानी
