Abhaidev
“Once I had an odd dream. A person I don’t remember was telling me in my sleep that unless one is properly buried or cremated with rituals, the soul remains tethered to the body. So, you are conscious of everything, even when you die. You hear everything. You see everything. You see your own dead body from above, and only when the funeral is over, you detach from it and make the transition to a fresh one.”
Abhaidev, The World's Most Frustrated Man

Sima B. Moussavian
“There is a certain fascination about death. It is the engine of our world: nothing drives living things more, not even love. Since we had lost it - our most important drive, the most powerful engine - the fascination for it had grown into an obsession. Just as it happens to us with everything that seems unreachable. We want to grasp it, want to touch it, want to be close to it, want to own it.”
Sima B. Moussavian, Tomorrow death died out: What if the future were past?

Sima B. Moussavian
“Does a lack of life always equate to death? Perhaps it’s sometimes worse than that. For us, back then, it was. We were living an exiguity, an insufficiency which painfully demanded compensation, but to compensate for it we had nothing left. Silent. Perfectly silent as we were gliding across the icy earth. We didn't even leave traces anymore that could someday remind someone else that we had been there at all. How much does silence weigh and what amount of it can crush a man? However much: suddenly it was heavier on our shoulders. The silence, the air, the life that stuck to us like a tasteless chewing gum that we didn’t even want and all of a sudden, they ceased: the warm cloudlets, soaring into the icy air from my loosened lips. I stopped breathing.”

Rachel Le Mesurier
“Good. You should be frightened.” He turned to her, his eyes wild and dangerous. “This is the man you’re marrying, Esperanza. This is what he does to people. The least you can do is go into it with your eyes open. You and your family, all you see are the flashy clothes and baile cenas, the huge estates and the sparkly jewellery. Did you ever stop to think about where he gets it all from? It’s paid for in blood, Señorita. The blood of innocent men.”
Rachel Le Mesurier, Artie's Courage

Bhuwan Thapaliya
“He poured himself
a glass of her thoughts
two years after she won
a scholarship to heaven
to pursue her PhD
in life after death
and sat down beside
her antique gramophone
with his senses
straining in the dark.”
