Civilization is a stream with banks. The stream is sometimes filled with blood from people killing, stealing, shouting and doing the things historians usually record, while on the banks, unnoticed, people build homes, make love, raise children, sing song.

    सभ्यता बैंकों के साथ एक धारा है। धारा कभी-कभी लोगों को मारने, चोरी करने, चिल्लाने और उन चीजों से खून से भर जाती है जो आमतौर पर इतिहासकार रिकॉर्ड करते हैं, जबकि बैंकों पर, किसी का ध्यान नहीं है, लोग घर बनाते हैं, प्यार करते हैं, बच्चे पैदा करते हैं, गाना गाते हैं।
