"In the midst of the vagaries of life, they provide us a trip to the land of goodness and fairies, of imaginations and possibilities.A childhood that wasn't spent watching cartoons or reading comic strips, no wonder, seems too dull to imagine."

Childhood

"Even when it seems that there is no one else, always remember there's one person who never ceased to love you - yourself."

Society

"Never follow the crowd....Until and unless you're crossing the road."

"Attraction is often mistaken to be love. If you're in a relationship doesn't necessarily mean you're in love. And what do you do when that ephemeral attraction is long gone? What people call break - ups are nothing more but the realization that you didn't love them at the first place...Shouldn't you have been more careful before making those empty promises?"

Attraction

"She awaits the rain like a writer embraces metaphors, A drizzle isn't for the child who dances in the storm.Of rain that washes away the petrichor it brings, A downpour of a hail of bullets, and she calls it spring."

Authenticity

"May be the power lies in the hands of the one who holds the gun... so he just presses the trigger whenever the slightest streak of anger passes his mind... and after a few haunting days he roams freely in the country without fear .. and what about the one who faces the wrath and bears the bullets? He leaves a movement behind... but haven't such movements always been ephemeral? Is death the price you need to pay to open the eyes of those who care but just for a couple of days?"

Violence

"Sometimes, he gets on my nerves;At other times, I burn the ladder."

Relationship

"If I tell you I am upset about everything that's going on around me, you will probably ask me why, half listening, half wandering away in your own train of thoughts...If I tell you I am happy, you will probably not bother to know why, congratulating me and forgetting..I should rather tell you I am fine, satisfied, you will probably tell me your own issues then, for which I will be all ears"

Fortitude

"People are going to break promises, and they will have every right to till the point you realize that you don't change plans based on someone else's words."

Detachment

"Maybe that's what writers do - Maybe they exaggerate pain just so that you feel okay about what you're feeling."
