The evil ruler spoils the word, the plan of life, by his teachings. He, indeed, deprives me of the exalted goal of good thought. With the word of my spirit, I pray to You, O Wise One, and to truth!

-Scriptures "Avesta, Yasna 32.9"
We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.
-E. M. Forster
What we call life is only talk of nature.
-Dejan Stojanović
"The Sun Watches the Sun"
Live in the world like a waterfowl. The water clings to the bird, but the bird shakes it off. Live in the world like a mudfish. The fish lives in the mud, but its skin is always bright and shiny.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
The secret of life is not enjoyment, but education through experience.
-Swami Vivekananda "Swami Vivekananda"
In this world of infinite "Time and Space", if you could not decipher the rationale
of your 6 feet long body coming into existence for about 60 years, then whatever
you did, learnt or achieved is all useless.
-Deep Trivedi
If you really wish to strengthen your individuality and accomplish something
great in life, then recognize the presence of "witness". Only because it is there,
you can feel that you are working.
-Deep Trivedi
Believing life to be of 60 years, we live our entire life considering it to be "One"
unit. This is the reason, why memories of the past and fear of the future keep
haunting us. Whereas in reality, life is the culmination of billions of moments put
together. Hence, each moment - a new moment. And when each moment is a
new moment... then which past and whose future?
-Deep Trivedi
Without an ever-present sense of death, life is insipid. You might as well live on the whites of eggs.
-Muriel Spark "Muriel Spark"
There are ships sailing to many ports, but not a single one goes where life is not painful.
-Fernando Pessoa
