A human being has so many skins inside, covering the depths of the heart. We know so many things, but we don’t know ourselves!
If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy. Then he becomes your partner.
There is the solitude of suffering, when you go through darkness that is lonely, intense, and terrible. Words become powerless to express your pain; what others hear from your words is so distant and different from what you are actually suffering.

The unsuccessful person falls for the ritualistic hypocrisies of religion. Such
hypocrisies give birth to false hopes, and false hopes lead to performing wrong
deeds. Wrong karma induces more sorrows; and more the miseries, more the
person falls for religious hypocrisies. Such a sorry state of human beings is
solely owed to being trapped in this vicious circle.
-Deep Trivedi
Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived.
