-Dalai Lama Xiv
Quotations
Life
Life without freedom is like a body without a soul, and freedom without thought is like a confused spirit…
-Khalil Gibran " Kahlil Gibran"
If you wish to make your life meaningful; every morning spend ten minutes in
solitude and think about making today a fruitful day, and before going to bed
at night, rewind the day for five minutes and think whether or not the day was
wasted. And then, see what you will soon transform into.
-Deep Trivedi
The horse who wins the race, but does not know the difference between dry and
green grass, for how long can he sustain himself in the race? Same is the case
with people who attain higher degrees or are scholars, but still do not understand
the realities of life.
-Deep Trivedi
This is how the entire course of a life can be changed : By doing nothing.

-Louis Sachar
