Richard Lloyd Parry
“Even the most intense aerial bombing leaves the walls and foundations of burned-out buildings, as well as parks and woods, roads and tracks, fields and cemeteries. The tsunami spared nothing, and achieved feats of surreal juxtaposition that no explosion could match. It plucked forests up by their roots, and scattered them miles inland. It peeled the macadam off the roads, and cast it hither and thither in buckled ribbons. It stripped houses to their foundations, and lifted cars, lorries, ships and corpses onto the top of tall buildings.”
― Richard Lloyd Parry, Ghosts of the Tsunami: Death and Life in Japan's Disaster Zone

Avijeet Das
“these raindrops make me feel the sky is crying
when the whole world goes up in flames may be she will not have any more tears to cry
rivers are drying up tsunamis come uninvited
acid rain has made inroads of what chemicals
are tears made of why do I cry everytime it rains...”
― Avijeet Das
