Jeevan Chaudhary Quotes in Station Eleven
On silent afternoons in his brother's apartment, Jeevan found himself thinking about how human the city is, how human everything is. We bemoaned the impersonality of the modern world, but that was a lie, it seemed to him; it had never been impersonal at all.

“Well, we'll just stay here till the lights come back on or the Red Cross shows up or whatever."
