Notable quotes

— "Pi Patel" in Life of Pi (2012), based on the 2001 novel by Yann Martel
“Ganesha the god-maker regarded the jungle about him. Though he walked through the realm of the phantom cats, he feared no evil. For the Lord of Chaos walked by his side, and the Trident of Destruction comforted him.”
