Ghalib Quotes

“I wished I had renounced the faith, taken a rosary in my hand, put a sectarian mark on my forehead, tied a sacred thread round my waist and seated myself on the bank of the Ganges so that I could wash the contamination of existence away from myself and like a drop be one with the river.”
― Pavan K. Varma, Ghalib: The Man, The Times
