You cannot change what you are, only what you do.
-Philip Pullman
An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is only an adventure wrongly considered.
-G. K. Chesterton
Booksellers are the most valuable destination for the lonely, given the numbers of books written because authors couldn't find anyone to talk to.
-Alain De Botton
I wanted to write the most beautiful poem but that is impossible; the world has written its own.
-Dejan Stojanović
In life, no one can only be bad. Even the worst of human being has many good
qualities hidden in him. The one who only looks at the better part of people, lives
his life in utter bliss and peace.
-Deep Trivedi
To uphold righteousness, so supreme an act did he perform; he gave his head, but did not utter a word of sorrow. For the sake of righteousness, he did this great heroic deed; he laid down his life but not the principles… Guru Tegh Bahadur broke his earthly vase on the head of the Emperor of Delhi – and went to the abode of God.
There are chapters in every life which are seldom read and certainly not aloud.
-Carol Shields
Science is the name for transformation brought in the psychology of substances
and religion is the name for the knowledge which transforms the psychology of
human beings. Science can provide material comforts to a human being, but
for mental well-being, one has to change his psychology. Hence, striking a fine
balance between the two is the only way to lead a human being and the world
onto the path of progress.
-Deep Trivedi
Right from communication, necessity, luxury to ailments of the body, whatever
that science has discovered or invented, is actually nothing less than a miracle.
In that case, if we can relate the 'blessings of Science' to our mind rather than
brain, even nature will become envious of our life.
-Deep Trivedi
