Quotations
Life
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
There is not a particle of life which does not bear poetry within it.
-Gustave Flaubert
Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.
-Marcus Aurelius
Life isn’t divided into genres. It’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you're lucky.
-Alan Moore
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” "
We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.
-Plato
Those who see all creatures within themselves, and themselves in all creatures know no fear. Those who see all creatures in themselves, and themselves in all creatures know no grief. How can the multiplicity of life, delude the one who sees its unity?
-Isha Upanishad "Isha Upanishad 6-7"
Life is such a business, where for every gain you have to lose something.
'Losing less - Gaining more' is what defines success in business here.
'Big loss - Small gain' is a loss making deal in life... At the same time, depriving
yourself of the gain, out of fear of loss is utter stupidity.
-Deep Trivedi
Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?
-Martin Luther King, Jr.
