- Jonathan Safran Foer
If you keep your focus fixed on the 'witness' - the one who is watching rather
than the 'ego' - the doer...your identification with the objects, people and acts will
be severed. The root cause of all the miseries of the world is our attachment with
them.
- Deep Trivedi

- Maharatnakuta Sutra 27
Where egoism exists, Thou are not experienced. Where Thou art, is not egoism. You who are learned, expound in your mind, this inexpressible proposition.
- Scriptures
Be beautiful if you can, wise if you want to, but be respected - that is essential.
- Anna Gould
After helping someone, if you expect a gesture of gratitude from him, then there
is no point in helping. If you feel good when he expresses his gratitude, then too
helping is useless. In that case, you must understand that your help was merely
a means to satiate your ego.
- Deep Trivedi
Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point.
- C. S. Lewis
