Freedom: both so priceless and so expensive.
-Patricia Duncker
It is not miserable to be blind, it is miserable to be incapable of enduring blindness.
-John Milton
The word “impossible” is only in the mind, and not in the heart.
If we can remain in the heart, there will be no end to our progress.
-Sri Chinmoy
This time, like all time, is a very good one but if we know what to do with it.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Children are happy because they don't have a file in their minds called ‘All The Things That Could Go Wrong’.
-Marianne Williamson
It is hard to find a man who has desire for what he has not tasted, or who tastes the world and is untouched. Here in the world some crave pleasure, some seek freedom but it is hard to find a man who wants neither. It is hard to find a man who has an open mind, who neither seeks nor shuns wealth or pleasure, duty or liberation, life or death…He does not want the world to end. He does not mind if it lasts. Whatever befalls him, He lives in happiness.
In history, we remember and respect only those who have the courage to stand
apart from the crowd and speak the "truth". Like Buddha, who despite being
born into a Hindu family defied Hindu traditions, its hypocrisies and established
Buddhism. Likewise, even Jesus, born into a Jewish family, revolted against
Jewish traditions and lost his life, or "Krishna" who not only opposed every
prevalent tradition, but even broke them all his life. Do you still wish to continue
being a Hindu, Muslim or Christian?
-Deep Trivedi
For those who may not find happiness to exercise religious faith, it’s okay to remain a radical atheist – it’s absolutely an individual right, but the important thing is with a compassionate heart – then no problem.
