Adventure is not outside man; it is within.
-George Eliot
In human intercourse the tragedy begins, not when there is misunderstanding about words, but when silence is not understood.
-Henry David Thoreau
If I had to choose a religion, the sun as the universal giver of life would be my god.
Neither do we have to make the sun or moon rise nor manage gravitation. We do
not even have to convert the food that we eat into blood. All that we have to do
is, put our own life on the path of peace, bliss and success. Isn't it amusing that
we, who claim ourselves to be so intelligent, cannot do even this bit of work?
-Deep Trivedi
Thoughts are the medium through which the ego, the limited self, appears and paves the way for all our likes and dislikes, pleasure and pain.
Don’t be jealous if I spend 50% of my time with you and 50% of my time with others, because you get 100% of 50%, while all the others have to share that other 50%. This is the speech I’ve prepared to tell my wife in the future, when I’m spending a majority minus one percent of my time with my clones.
We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.
-E. M. Forster
