“நம�� வாழ்க்கை முறை உடம்பை
வாழையாய் வளர்த்துவிட்டத��.
மனதைக் கோழையாய்
வளர்த்துவிட்டத��. உடம்புக்கும்
மனதுக்கும் ஒருமைப்பாட��
இல்ல໾.
செருப்புக் கடித்துச��
செத்துப்போகும்
தேகங்கள໾
வளர்த்துவிட்டோ ம்.
தந்திவந்தால் இறந்துபோகும்
இதயங்கள໾
வளர்த்துவிட்டோ ம்.”
― R Vairamuthu, Thaneer Desam

“There are eaters and the eaten. The tiger does not resent the deer that gets away. The doe does not resent the tiger that captures her fawn. They are following their instincts. Plants and animals live;
humans need to judge, for we need to feel good about ourselves. That is why we create stories, full of heroes and villains, victims and martyrs”
― Devdutt Pattanaik, Sita: An Illustrated Retelling of the Ramayana

“Thinking about things freely means leaving behind your physical body. Leaving the cage of your physical flesh, breaking free of the chains, and letting pure logic soar free. Giving a natural life to logic. That's the core of free thought.”
― Haruki Murakami, Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage

“Stars! It looks as if you're winking amused at the idiocy of the people on this earth. You have every reason to laugh. You saw the battle that happened a hundred years ago, and the blood that flooded the ground a long time afterwards. You wonder why there should be so much enmity among human beings, so much carnage and bloodshed. And why this should be known as heroism!"
"Even after a man has been dead a hundred years, people continue to hate him. This is an enemy's pallipadai where people gather to torture the living in name of the dead. Stars in the sky! Why wouldn't you laugh! Laugh!”
