Quotes by Hari Kunzru

“There was, as she put it, nothing to stop me. So I followed the path of educated misfits through the ages and got a job in a bookshop.”
― Hari Kunzru, My Revolutions

6 people liked it

“Several times in my life I've gone through long periods without sex or any other kind of physical contact. The hunger it produces is deep and low; it's possible to lose track of it, to forget or fail to perceive how it's emptied everything out of you and made the world papery and thin. Touch starved, you brush against existence like a stick against dry leaves. You become insubstantial yourself, a hungry ghost.”
― Hari Kunzru, My Revolutions

“Legality is just the name for everything that's not dangerous for the ruling order.”
― Hari Kunzru, My Revolutions
