More quotes by Amit Chaudhuri
‘Calcutta has still not recovered from history: people mourn the past, and abhor it deeply.’
History is always lying before you, unnoticed: till you suddenly see it, as we do now.
This is what's beautiful about staying in a club or hotel: you're invisible, as is your neighbour.
Trenches and mounds of dust everywhere give the city a strange bombed-out look.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
