Backward, turn backward,
O Time, in your flight make me a child again just for to-night!
-Elizabeth A. Behnke
The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one.
-Elbert Hubbard
Self-respect is the root of discipline: The sense of dignity grows with the ability to say no to oneself.
-Abraham Joshua Heschel
People who have become historical figures are the ones, who have done
something new. Then let that innovation be in the field of science, religion,
business, music, literature or even movie-making. The matter worth thinking
about is; is there anything new, in all that we are being offered in the name of
'religion and education' or are we just blindly swallowing it up?
-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.
-Ashtavakra Gita
A man, who realises the potential of his mind by means of introspection and contemplation, does not lack self-confidence. He has control over his mind and he is able to realise its full potential.
-Vedas
