Quotations
Life
Don't be afraid of death; be afraid of an unlived life.

Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.
-Søren Kierkegaard
Remember, remember, this is now, and now, and now. Live it, feel it, cling to it. I want to become acutely aware of all I’ve taken for granted.

-Khalil Gibran "Kahlil Gibran"
But how could you live and have no story to tell?
-Fyodor M. Dostoevsky
"White Nights"
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
