What are we? We are the medium between God and the World. If I elaborate
further, then we are the screens whose only duty is to bring the producer's film
to its viewers.

Quotations
Human
How strange are we? We don't have claws like a tiger, yet we growl at others,
don't have venom like snakes, yet harbour animosities; don't have wings like
birds, still keep flying in the fantasy world. When you do not possess any human
quality, how will you achieve success in life?
-Deep Trivedi
Rendering help to another is the function of all human beings.
-Scriptures "Tattvarthasutra 5.21"
Lighten up on yourself. No one is perfect. Gently accept your humanness.
-Deborah Day "Deborah Day"
I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.
-Charlotte Brontë "Charlotte Bronte, Jane Eyre"
A man’s value depends upon his courage and resolution, his veracity depends upon his traits of nobility and self respect and his chastity depends upon his sense of honour.
-Anonymous "Hazrat Ali"
Hear with your ears, that which is the sovereign good. With a clear mind look upon the two sides, between which each man must choose for himself. Watchful beforehand that the great test may be accomplished in our favour.
-Scriptures "Avesta, Yasna 30.2-3"
There are no greater treasures than the highest human qualities such as compassion, courage and hope. Not even tragic accident or disaster can destroy such treasures of the heart.
-A Spiritual Leader "Daisaku Ikeda"
Every person has both a bad heart and a good heart. No matter how good a man seems, he has some evil. No matter how bad a man seems, there is some good about him. No man is perfect.
-Mohawk Tradition "Mohawk tradition"
The refined form of "human" body, mind, culture and consciousness that we
witness today is the result of countless unsuccessful efforts spanning over millions
of years. We cannot afford to waste such a precious life only on education,
marriage, children, chasing wealth and pangs of old age.
