Nothing exists except atoms and empty space; everything else is opinion.
-Democritus
Let your aims be common, and your hearts of one accord, and all of you be of one mind, so you may live well together.
Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.
-Margaret Oliphant
A person ''true by heart'' is free from all the pains of separation that one generally
endures. Because he knows that the physical meeting and separation depend
upon the circumstances created by nature, then why be unhappy about it? And
if separated from someone by heart, then the question of grieving simply doesn't
arise.
-Deep Trivedi
Wealth - any income that is at least one hundred dollars more a year than the income of one's wife's sister's husband.
-H. L. Mencken
For him who has completed the journey, for him who is sorrowless, for him who from everything is wholly free, for him who has destroyed all ties, the fever of passion exists not… He is like a pool, unsullied by mud; to such a balanced one, life’s wanderings do not arise. Calm is his mind, calm is his speech, calm is his action, who, rightly knowing, is wholly freed, perfectly peaceful and equipoised.
There is no happiness in this world which is not balanced by facing equal amount
of sorrow. If you wish to save yourself from sorrows, then bury the feeling of
indulgence and separate yourself from the one who is enjoying within you. And
this is possible only if you stop taking pride in being a ''doer''.
-Deep Trivedi
It's not that we have little time, but more that we waste a good deal of it.
-Seneca the Younger
