A Quote by Joy Mathew

I always say that you get to see a 'Malayali' only in the Gulf. Even in Kerala, you will only see somebody from Kozhikode, Alappuzha, or Kollam, never a quintessential Malayali!
Priyadarshan asked me during the shooting of 'Maalamaal Weekly' 'where are you from, Kerala or Tamil Nadu?' I told him 'I am a Malayali just like you.'
I am open to do a Telugu, Tamil or Malayali movie. If I get a good script and good character, I will surely do it.
It is always a pleasure to work with a Malayali crew, regardless of the language of the movie.
Say So'ham, So'ham whatever comes. Tell yourself this even in eating, walking, suffering. Tell the mind this incessantly-that what we see never existed, that there is only I. Flash-the dream will break! Think day and night, this universe is zero, only God is. Have intense desire to get free.
I was really surprised to see how critical the Malayali audiences are. It is really overwhelming that people genuinely want good scripts and do not miss a chance to applaud good scripts.
Being born into a Malayali family that followed a matriarchal system, I always felt loved and had a high sense of self-worth.
I come from a middle-class family in Kozhikode, Kerala.
It is how it has always been. We will accept the legacy of our ancestors,' Asha says, smiling, and in her smile I do not see warmth or wisdom; I see fear. You're afraid of losing your hold on them,' I say coolly. I? I have no power.' Don't you? If you keep them from the magic, they will never know what their lives could be.' They will remain protected,' Asha insists. No,' I say. 'Only untested' -page 569
A good photograph will prove to the viewer how little our eyes permit us to see. Most people, really, don’t see-see only what they have always seen and what they expect to see-where a photographer, if he’s good, will see everything. And better if he sees things he doesn’t expect to see.
I am a Malayali. My ancestors are from Tamil Nadu, but they settled in Irinjalakuda.
We have been told mankind will be judged on the intent of the heart. No mortal can see into the depth of another. There is only One who can. His is the role of a judge-not ours. If you are prone to criticize or judge, remember, we never see the target a man aims at in life. We see only what he hits.
I am a Malayali who was brought up in Chennai. I know both Malayalam and Tamil.
I always see what’s... wrong. Would you want that? When I see a car or a rocket or spacecraft, I only see what’s wrong. I never see what’s right. It’s not a recipe for happiness.
...you find your genius by looking in the mirror of your life. Your visible image shows your inner truth, so when you're estimating others, what you see is what you get. It therefore becomes critically important to see generously, or you will get only what you see; to see sharply, so that you discern the mix of traits rather than a generalized lump; and to see deeply into dark shadows, or else you will be deceived.
Being a Malayali, I had to learn Punjabi and Haryanvi to be able to jump into the music scene.
It's always nice to look in the mirror at the end of the day and see that you helped somebody's life... even if only a little bit.
