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"
Nature's creation is such that whatever is worth attaining or beneficial for us, we
can get it automatically. But in the race to grab the things which are futile and
painful, we miss attaining them only.
-Deep Trivedi
Life is a journey towards the unknown. An empty mind is useful in that journey rather than a mind filled with past.
-J. Krishnamurti
Slow down and enjoy life. It's not only the scenery you miss by going too fast - you also miss the sense of where you are going and why.
-Eddie Cantor
I don’t live in either my past or my future. I’m interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you’ll be a happy man. Life will be a party for you, a grand festival, because life is the moment we’re living now.
-Paulo Coelho
"The Alchemist"
I exhort you also to take part in the great combat, which is the combat of life, and greater than every other earthly conflict.
-Plato "Plato"
One’s entire life is a continuous process of learning. Any process of inquiry is related to learning. But basically our inquiry should be concerned with finding out what is transient and what is permanent. This is true knowledge.
-Sathya Sai Baba "Sri Sathya Sai Baba"
For breath is life, and if you breathe well you will live long on earth.
-Proverbs "Sanskrit Proverb"
If there is any planning worth undertaking in human life it is, when one breathes
his last neither should he have any guilt nor dissatisfaction... Despite doing
everything desired, still if he has any kind of remorse or discontent while bidding
goodbye to this world...then what did he do all his life?
-Deep Trivedi
