The voting booth joint is a great leveller, the whole neighbourhood – rich, poor, old, young, decrepit and spunky – they all turn out in one day.

Under all speech that is good for anything there lies a silence that is better.
-Thomas Carlyle
The word enlightenment conjures up the idea of some superhuman accomplishment, and the ego likes to keep it that way, but it is simply your natural state of felt oneness with Being.
-Eckhart Tolle
Lost time is never found again; and what we call time enough, always proves little enough.
-Benjamin Franklin
The mode of living which is founded upon a total harmlessness towards all creatures upon a minimum of such harm is the highest morality.
-Scriptures
Happiness is like a cat. If you try to coax it or call it, it will avoid you. It will never come. But if you pay no attention to it and go about your business, you'll find it rubbing up against your legs and jumping into your lap.
-William J. Bennett
In this world, there are only two kinds of people who can be happy and successful.
One, who believe that God is almighty...then whatever good - bad, sin - virtue,
all is happening as per his will; the matter ends. Second, who believe that God
doesn't exist at all and take up all their responsibilities by themselves, again the
matter ends. But since all of us are stuck hanging between the two, we end up
being sad and unsuccessful.
-Deep Trivedi
God can be realised through all paths. All religions are true. The important thing is to reach the roof. You can reach it by stone stairs or by wooden stairs or by bamboo steps or by a rope. You can also climb up by a bamboo pole.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
God has no marks, colour, caste, and no ancestors, no form, complexion, outline, costume and is indescribable. He is fearless, luminous and measureless in might. He is the king of kings, the Lord of the prophets. He is the sovereign of the universe, gods, men and demons. The woods and dales sing the indescribable. O Lord, none can tell Thy names. The wise count your blessings to coin your names.
