“हमारे सामने जो मार्ग है उसका कितना ही भाग बीत चुका है, कुछ हमारे सामने है और बहुत अधिक आगे आने वाला है। बीते हुए से हम सहायता लेते हैं, आत्मविश्वास प्राप्त करते हैं, लेकिन बीते की ओर लौटना कोई प्रगति नहीं, प्रतिगति-पीछे लौटना होगा। हम लौट तो सकते नहीं क्योंकि अतीत को वर्तमान बनाना प्रकृति ने हमारे हाथ में नहीं दे रखा है।”
― Rahul Sankrityayan

“Democracy is the process to elect the Government of the Upper class or caste people, by the poor people and for the corporate people - Idiotneil”

“In Sri Lanka, the people you lived amongst, the people you went to school with, the people in whose houses you ate, whose jokes you shared: these were not the people you married. Quite possibly they were not your religion. More to the point they were probably not your caste. This word with its fearsome connotations was never, hardly ever used. But it was ever present: it muddied the waters of Sri Lanka's politics, it perfumed the air of her bed-chambers; it lurked, like a particularly noxious relative, behind the poruwa of every wedding ceremony. It was the c-word. People used its synonym, its acronym, its antonym-indeed any other nym that came to mind - in the vain hope its meaning would somehow go away. It didn't. But if the people you chose to associate with were the very ones you could not marry, then the ones you did marry were quite often people you wouldn't dream of associating with if you had any choice in the matter.”
― Ashok Ferrey, The Good Little Ceylonese Girl
