Quotes by Supriya Kelkar (?)

“You remind me of a horse.'
Anjali paused. 'A horse?'
'That white horse with the pink feathers tied to its head. The one that you kids pay to ride.' Anjali shook her head. 'I don't do that. I feel bad for that poor horse.'
Mohan smiled gently. 'Of course you do.' He paused. 'What I mean is, that horse has those gold-and-pink blinders next to his eyes so he doesn't see anything else around him. Doesn't get panicked. You have blinders on We walk the same path, but our experiences are so different.”
― Supriya Kelkar, Ahimsa

“There wasn’t room for the Popsicles from Noah’s freezer, so Aai let us eat them all after checking that they were free from cochineal and carmine, the red dye made from crushed bugs.”
