"Amal: All done with studies, exams, professors, cutting classes. Charulata: What's left? Foolishness and mischief? Amal: Poetry. Rhythm. You know, I was thinking. Charulata: What? Amal: All of life is like a rhythm. Birth, death. Day - night. Happiness - sorrow. Meeting - parting. Like the waves on the ocean, now rising - now falling. One complements the other."
"Bhupati Dutta: How do we go on living? Trust, faith - are these just empty words? Is there no honesty? Is it all just a sham and lies?"
