Whoever has achieved great success in life, they have knowingly or unknowingly,
firmly opted for one of the four ways of mind; joy, nature, independence or being
natural and whatever the path once chosen, irrespective of the circumstances...
they have incessantly followed it.
-Deep Trivedi
It is hard to believe that a man is telling the truth when you know that you would lie if you were in his place.
-H. L. Mencken
Power invariably elects to go into the hands of the strong. Strength may be physical, or of the heart or, if we do not fight shy of the word, of the spirit. Strength of the heart connotes soul-force. Let it be remembered that physical force is transitory. But the power of spirit is permanent even as the spirit is everlasting.
-Mahatma Gandhi
If you want to understand the teachings of Buddha, Krishna, Jesus or any great
philosopher, you will have to learn to differentiate and dissect their sayings
in two parts, one, 'eternal truth' and second, 'the truth relevant at that time'.
Without distinguishing the two, you will invariably end up misunderstanding their
sayings.
-Deep Trivedi
Action has meaning only in relationship and without understanding relationship, action on any level will only breed conflict. The understanding of relationship is infinitely more important than the search for any plan of action.
-J. Krishnamurti
To me, the greatest pleasure of writing is not what it's about, but the music the words make.
-Truman Capote
