1 " Love was indeed a big responsibility. One must use the word judiciously. One cannot love one day and take away love the next day. It is total caring. "
― Anuradha Bhattacharyya , The Road Taken
2 " Maybe, peace was preferable to pleasure. Maybe, peace is one’s first love. "

5 " Sometimes a man does not accept life as given. "
6 " If they had given in to passion, throwing caution to the wind,they would have lost everything. "
7 " Orgasm isn’t a goal. It’s the attitude that matters. Abir hasnever even asked how I feel after sex. He has many other concerns.He provides for me and I provide for him, that’s a familiarity whichno one can deny. We love each other. Love is a broader thing. "

19 " He was sulking. It was natural. If it had been a daughter or son, the parent would have rushed to find out why she or he did not turn up. The parent would have imagined all sorts of harm that might have happened to the beloved child. But a lover always sulks. A lover feels betrayed. A lover feels as if the beloved has deliberately jilted him. "
