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.
-Mahatma Gandhi
It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.
-Antoine De Saint Exupéry
For me, meditation re-orders the natural flow of life. Everybody has a flow or stream of consciousness that allows all things to move without resistance. Decisions come easily, things fall into place, and there’s no conflict.
-Oprah Winfrey
If a writer knows enough about what he is writing about, he may omit things that he knows. The dignity of movement of an iceberg is due to only one ninth of it being above water.
-Ernest Hemingway
Whether you’re a gem in the royal court or a stone on the common path, if you accept your part with humility the glory of the universe will be yours.
-Lao Tzu
It is not that the IQ of an average Indian is lower than that of the people of
developed countries. The only difference is, they know how to use it constructively
and they also have a conducive environment for the same. Whereas in case of
Indians, the entire intelligence gets wasted in image building and in dealing with
other's smartness.
-Deep Trivedi
In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.

What is the difference between us and Buddha, Krishna and Christ? Firstly,
eliminating the negativities of mind, they energized themselves and then they
deployed the same energy for the upliftment of the whole world. And look at us,
we are so inept that we can't even amass 'energy for our own betterment'.
-Deep Trivedi
