Quotations
Life
No one who does good deeds will ever come to a bad end, either here or in the world to come. When such people die, they go to other realms where the righteous live.
-Srimad Bhagavad Gita "Bhagwad Gita 6.40-41"
One’s entire life is a continuous process of learning. Any process of inquiry is related to learning. But basically our inquiry should be concerned with finding out what is transient and what is permanent. This is true knowledge.
-Sathya Sai Baba "Sri Sathya Sai Baba"
Surely my prayer and my sacrifice and my life and my death are (all) for Allah, the Lord of the worlds.
-Quran "Quran 6.162"
To be absolutely independent in each and every field of life, is your first and
foremost duty. If you are burdensome to anyone, for anything...then your life is
a complete waste.
-Deep Trivedi
Life isn’t divided into genres. It’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you're lucky.
-Alan Moore
All your efforts at the end are nothing, but inviting pains and pleasures in life,
whereas to be steadfast in your 'being' no effort is required. The best part is,
there is only joy and happiness, not just for one but for hundreds of reasons.
-Deep Trivedi
Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.
-Marcus Aurelius
I don't think that there are any limits to how excellent we could make life seem.
-Jonathan Safran Foer
"Everything is Illuminated"
It's not that I believe everything happens for a reason. It's just that . . . I just think that some things are meant to be broken, imperfect and chaotic. It's the universe's way of providing contrast, you know? There have to be a few holes in the road. It's how life is.
