Quotations
Life
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"
There are ships sailing to many ports, but not a single one goes where life is not painful.
-Fernando Pessoa

Life is life - whether in a cat, or dog or man. There is no difference there between a cat and man. The idea of difference is a human conception for man’s own advantage.
-Sri Aurobindo "Sri Aurobindo"
There are those who spend their lives arguing which is better, the crescent moon or the full. Then there are a few who revel in both for they know The Moon is One.
-Quran "Qamar, “ The Moon” "
In life, whatever you achieve by putting in efforts will never give you happiness,
as the pain starts right from the time of making an effort. On the other hand, the
tasks that you enjoy doing, persist for long spells; then whatever you gain out of
it, the end result will always be both positive and effective for your life.
-Deep Trivedi
