Quotes

From novels

From Tee Saat Din

  • Courage is never born with a person; time and circumstances inject it into a person and bring it forth from within.
    • Tee Saat Din[5]
  • No matter how frequently you visit the realm of dreams, you will inevitably confront the unvarnished truth. However, our truth is so much bitter that not even the entirety of the world's sugar can sweeten it.
    • Tee Saat Din

From Utsarga

  • If strong trust is not knotted in the foundation of love, a home that could shield its inhabitants could not be built. And life could not be lived wet, whether it be in rain or tears.
    • Utsarga
  • If strong trust is not knotted in the foundation of love, a home that could shield its inhabitants could not be built.
    • Utsarga
  • Life could not be lived wet, whether it be in rain or tears.
    • Utsarga
  • The essence of love lies in feeling it. Love remains steadfast through sorrow and joy. Love is in preserving trust rather than just having it. Love is in winning hearts through genuine care, not through threats or pressure.
    • Utsarga

From Pharak

  • When there is the moon, the night automatically becomes beautiful; there might be no need for extra light. Light must be saved for those moments when the night is dark, and the moon doesn't appear in the sky.
  • Plain paths are not always straightforward. You might encounter uneven, sometimes steep, sometimes flat obstacles along the way. That's the nature of a path. Therefore, after reaching an easy path, the walking stick should not be discarded.
    • Pharak
  • I realized that while women may seem like regular individuals, mothers are nothing short of divine embodiment. They transcend the ordinary, not only navigating life's challenges but also contending with the forces of nature in relentless devotion to their children.
    • Pharak

From Biplavi

  • I do not yearn for the cloud for I am not the rain. I am the sheer cloud itself, without whose presence there is no existence of rain.

From short stories

  • Those who can bend need not be taught how to stand tall.[5]
  • Like, love; but do not make the person an indispensable part of your habits, routines, and daily affairs. It can be relatively easy to forget an individual, but breaking a habit is exceedingly difficult.
  • How can those who incinerate with jealousy at the sight of someone else's external glitter not realize that not everything that shines is a diamond? Only the person wearing new shoes can truly experience the pain; for others, captivating is the allure of new shoes.
  • I hope not to encounter such a person again on my path who is interested in everything about me except my true self.
  • I quietly hung up the phone. There was no point in me protesting.
  • Amidst the shadows of adversity, a heart burdened and broken finds its steps faltering. Yet, it is in the act of rising, of daring to tread once more, that the flicker of confidence reignites.
  • Life doesn't end just because someone leaves.
  • The absence of lost things is felt most painfully when the things you possess stop providing satisfaction.
  • When you're comfortable within yourself, you don't care about others' problems or the challenges they face in life. However, when you're in distress, the memories of those you've abandoned leaving in dire situations, come back to haunt you. How selfish humans are!
  • One who has fallen and been badly injured won't regain the confidence to walk again until they get back up and try.
  • One who intends to understand grasps even the slightest hint, but the one who has no intention to understand never comprehends, no matter how loudly you shout.
  • A person willing to understand catches even the smallest clue, but one unwilling to understand will never get it, no matter how much you raise your voice.
  • When you stop respecting yourself, the world starts disrespecting you.
  • The home is not always ruined by outsiders; sometimes those within the family ruin it even more severely.

From poetry

  • Whether you want to break free or connect, it's your choice. But with great courage, I locked my eyes with yours.
  • If you ever become fatigued from chasing your dreams, you are always welcome in my world of reality.
  • How vast, how extensive
    the boundary of your company
    the magnificence of your affection.
    • An Untold Secret
  • Expressing not to you; but
    with you, I've bound my love
    unseen from anywhere.
    • An Untold Secret
  • May I meet you someday like this
    may there be no rush of saying goodbye
    may there be no fear of interruptions
    may all the emotions be poured out,
    and every nook and cranny of my heart be emptied.
    may I hold no regrets within
    may memories not haunt us later.
    • May I Meet You Someday Like This[6]
  • May I never tire of expressing myself
    may I find contentment in listening to you
    may there be no constraints of time
    and may we be bound together as a single knot
    you, time, and I.
    • May I Meet You Someday Like This
  • May there be no unfulfilled dreams like this
    may there be realities that satisfy me.
    • May I Meet You Someday Like This
  • I know
    it's almost beyond possibility for your essence
    to be enveloped within mine.
    Yet,
    the heart, after all, is a heart.
    • The Heart, A Heart It Is
  • My life is devoted to pulling me underground
    yet, I stand strong on my battleground
    determined I am
    not to let my life defeat my pride.
    • Me and My Life
  • I rushed to Mother
    clasped her in a tight embrace, and
    with resolute tones, proclaimed,
    'Mother! I'll never make another home!
    I'll stay forever young! '
    • The Descendants

From essays
