For beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror
which we are barely able to endure, and it amazes us so,
because it serenely disdains to destroy us.
Every angel is terrible.
- Rainer Maria Rilke
If life's lessons could be reduced to single sentences, there would be no need for fiction.
- Scott Turow
Because, once alone, it is impossible to believe that one could ever have been otherwise. Loneliness is an absolute discovery.
- Marilynne Robinson

to some extent, it can be transformed...and some transformation happens by

- Deep Trivedi
It is hard to find a man who has desire for what he has not tasted, or who tastes the world and is untouched. Here in the world some crave pleasure, some seek freedom but it is hard to find a man who wants neither. It is hard to find a man who has an open mind, who neither seeks nor shuns wealth or pleasure, duty or liberation, life or death…He does not want the world to end. He does not mind if it lasts. Whatever befalls him, He lives in happiness.
- Ashtavakra Gita
He that would live in peace and at ease must not speak all he knows or all he sees.
- Benjamin Franklin
I love the relationship that anyone has with music ... because there's something in us that is beyond the reach of words, something that eludes and defies our best attempts to spit it out... It's the best part of us, probably, the richest and strangest part.
- Nick Hornby
Once you have commenced the task, then moving your concentration and
energies away, prior to its "successful completion" - is like inviting failure
yourself.
- Deep Trivedi
