“শিল্পীর সামাজিক দায়িত্ব সম্পূর্ণ আছে। সামাজিক দায়িত্ব যারা এড়িয়ে চলে তারাও সামাজিক দায়িত্ব পালন করছে। অর্থাৎ তারা ওপরতলার শুয়োরের বাচ্চাদেরকে সাহায্য করছে। সামাজিক দায়িত্ব প্রত্যেকেই পালন করছে।”
Ritwik Ghatak, নিজের পায়ে নিজের পথে

“হুম, যদি কোন শিল্পী একই জিনিশ অনবরত দিয়ে যান, তবে বুঝতে হবে সে ভদ্দরলোকের ভিতরটা পচে গিয়েছে।”
