The cover for Volume 9 seems to be very well liked. I received many letters discussing their opinions regarding it. "Follow me! That's what it is trying to convey!!” or "Men speak with their backs!!” or "It's like saying everybody's fate is resting upon my back, what a great cover!!” and stuff like that.... Can't bear to say "It's because drawing the colonel's face is really troublesome”... Can't say it... -->.

I am about life. I surround myself with beautiful things. I work hard to have a better life. This job helps me achieve that through the people I meet.

We must create a history of India in living terms. Up to the present that history, as written by the English, practically begins with Warren Hastings, and crams in certain unavoidable preliminaries, which cover a few thousands of years...The history of India has yet to be written for the first time. It has to be humanized, emotionalized, made the trumpet-voice and evangel of the race that inhabit India.
Sister Nivedita
My paintings have gotten to be pretty popular and I've taken a little bit more interest in painting the last few years. In fact, my novel that I wrote not too long ago, 'The Hornet's Nest,' I painted the cover picture for it and I do a good bit of painting now.

If you take out uncovered meat and place it outside on the street, or in the the garden or in the park, or in the backyard without a cover, and the cats come and eat it ... whose fault is it, the cats or the uncovered meat?

Many women are asking: why do some women choose to cover their heads? We have to understand this and other questions. This is one of the biggest challenges for feminism today. What is worrying is that when women are divided into categories it is the status quo – the patriarchy – that benefits....
Elif Shafak
Into the New World my first message. You who gave the Ashram, And you who gave two lives, Proclaim. Builders and warriors, strengthen the steps. Reader, if you have not grasped-read again, after a while. The predestined is not accidental, The leaves fall in their time. And winter is but the harbinger of spring.
