Memorable Quotes from "The Sun and Her Flowers"
- "This is the recipe of life, said my mother, as she held me in her arms as I wept. Think of those flowers you plant in the garden each year. They will teach you that people too must wilt, fall, root, rise, in order to bloom."
- Translation (Sinhala): "මෙය ජීවිතයේ වට්ටෝරුවයි, මාගේ අම්මා කිවුවා, මම අඬන විට ඇය මා ඇඟිලිගෑස්සමින්. ඔබ සෑම වසරකම උද්යානයේ වප්පු අරලියා මල් ගැන සිතන්න. ඔවුන් ඔබට ඉගැන්වීමේ දේ නම් මිනිසුන්ටත් එලෙසම මිය, වැටී, මුල් ගැසී, නැගී, මලක් ලෙස පත් විය යුතුය."
- Translation (Tamil): "இது வாழ்க்கையின் செய்முறை, என் தாய் என்னை தழுவி என் அழுகையை ஆற்றிச் சொன்னாள். ஒவ்வொரு ஆண்டும் நீங்கள் தோட்டத்தில் நடும் அந்த மலர்களைப் பாருங்கள். மாலர்களைப் போலவே, மனிதர்களும் முளைக்க, விழ, ஆழமாக நுழைய, உயர, மலர வேண்டும் என்பதை அவர்கள் உங்களுக்கு கற்பிப்பார்கள்."
- "Rise, said the moon, and the new day came. The show must go on."
