One way an author dies a little each day is when his books go out of print.
-William Goldman
There is a limit to how much you can change to be liked for who you really are.
-Robert Brault
Pain reaches the heart with electrical speed, but truth moves to the heart as slowly as a glacier.
-Barbara Kingsolver
Power invariably elects to go into the hands of the strong. Strength may be physical, or of the heart or, if we do not fight shy of the word, of the spirit. Strength of the heart connotes soul-force. Let it be remembered that physical force is transitory. But the power of spirit is permanent even as the spirit is everlasting.
There is nothing wrong in having any kind of fancy in life or any physical act, if
done appropriately. Likewise, there is no virtue in visiting temples or worshipping
either. The goodness of being human lies in the qualities like compassion, self-
confidence, self-dependence and innocence which are tainted by attributes like
jealousy, partiality, selfishness and stubbornness.
-Deep Trivedi
And my goal in life is to give to the world what I was lucky to receive... the ecstasy of divine union through my music and my dance.
-Michael Jackson
