Quotations
Universe
Vacuity, tranquillity, mellowness, quietness and taking no action characterise things of the universe at peace and represent the ultimate Tao and virtue. Therefore abide in them.
-Zhuangzi "Zhuangzi, Daoism"
The vast space of this universe doesn't end anywhere. Think, even if it ends,
what would lie beyond? That too, can't be anything other than space. In such a
certainly infinite universe what sort of things are we worried about?
-Deep Trivedi
All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark.
-Swami Vivekananda
The universe may not always play fair, but at least it's got a hell of a sense of humour.
-Candace Bushnell
"Sex and the City"
Bliss, knowledge and wisdom are Sun himself. I bow to Mitra, Bhanu, to the shining one, the cause of the universe and let Him protect me from death.
-Vedas "Atharva Veda"
The universe has been created out of knowledge and action and seems also possessed of consciousness.
-A Spiritual Leader "Abhivavagupta"
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 "Lao Tzu"
You may control a mad elephant; You may shut the mouth of the bear and the tiger; Ride the lion and play with the cobra; By alchemy you may earn your livelihood; You may wander through the universe incognito; Make vassals of the gods; be ever youthful; You may walk on water and live in fire; But control of the mind is better and more difficult.
-A Spiritual Leader "Thayumanavar"
All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark.
-Swami Vivekananda "Swami Vivekananda"
