Songs are as sad as the listener.
-Jonathan Safran Foer
Men become civilized, not in proportion to their willingness to believe, but in proportion to their readiness to doubt.
-Ambrose Bierce
Win over the ill-natured man by goodness…Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.
Nothing ever becomes real till it is experienced - even a proverb is no proverb to you till your life has illustrated it.
-John Keats
The blossom of love will make the air fragrant; the river of love will murmur along the valleys; and every bird, beast and child will sing the song of love.
You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.
-Rabindranath Tagore
Happiness never made anyone rich or famous. That must be why ambitious people avoid it.
-Marty Rubin
If you can accomplish any great task being absorbed in it and that too without
any expectations, believe me, that one act of yours will make you a "historical
person".
-Deep Trivedi
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.
