Human rights are...the quintessential values through which we affirm together that we are a single human community.

Human rights are...the quintessential values through which we affirm together that we are a single human community.
Lighten up on yourself. No one is perfect. Gently accept your humanness.
Hear with your ears, that which is the sovereign good. With a clear mind look upon the two sides, between which each man must choose for himself. Watchful beforehand that the great test may be accomplished in our favour.
In this world, the smallest of the particle or even a mosquito does not exist
without a reason. In this universe, if someone is living without any reason, it is
none other than a human being... But then there is no one more intelligent than
him either.
-Deep Trivedi
You deserve to be called a human being only when you develop good feelings in you. Let your thoughts, words and deeds be suffused with sacred feelings.
When it comes to human dignity, we cannot make compromises.
If there is to be a human future, we must bring ourselves into balanced relationship with one another and the Earth. This requires building economies with the heart.
A man’s value depends upon his courage and resolution, his veracity depends upon his traits of nobility and self respect and his chastity depends upon his sense of honour.
In the universe, everything has its own individual nature. No element of existence
has any confusion with regards to their nature except the intelligent human being,
who is absolutely clueless about his own nature.
-Deep Trivedi
As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world – that is the myth of the atomic age – as in being able to remake ourselves.
