“आज सड़कों पर लिखे हैं सैकड़ों नारे न देख,
घ्रर अंधेरा देख तू आकाश के तारे न देख।

एक दरिया है यहां पर दूर तक फैला हुआ,
आज अपने बाज़ुओं को देख पतवारें न देख।

अब यकीनन ठोस है धरती हकीकत की तरह,
यह हक़ीक़त देख लेकिन खौफ़ के मारे न देख।

वे सहारे भी नहीं अब जंग लड़नी है तुझे,
कट चुके जो हाथ उन हाथों में तलवारें न देख।

ये धुंधलका है नज़र का तू महज़ मायूस है,
रोजनों को देख दीवारों में दीवारें न देख।

राख कितनी राख है, चारों तरफ बिखरी हुई,
राख में चिनगारियां ही देख अंगारे न देख।”
Dushyant Kumar, साये में धूप [Saaye mein Dhoop]

Tim Wu
“We've already seen the attention merchant's basic modus operandi: draw attention with apparently free stuff and then resell it. but a consequence of that model is a total dependence on gaining and holding attention. This means that under competition, the race will naturally run to the bottom; attention will almost invariably gravitate to the more garish, lurid, outrageous alternative, whatever stimulus may more likely engage what cognitive scientists call our ''automatic'' attention as opposed to our ''controlled'' attention, the kind we direct with intent. The race to a bottomless bottom, appealing to what one might call the audience's baser instincts, poses a fundamental, continual dilemma for the attention merchant-just how far will he go to get his harvest? If the history of attention capture teaches us anything, it is that the limits are often theoretical, and when real, rarely self-imposed.”
Tim Wu, The Attention Merchants: The Epic Scramble to Get Inside Our Heads

“How to Make People Want to Start a Conversation with You Singles proficient at meeting potential sweethearts without the benefit of introduction (in the vernacular, making a "pickup"), have developed a deliciously devious technique that works equally well for social or corporate networking purposes. The technique requires no exceptional skill on your part, only the courage to sport a simple visual prop called a "Whatzit." What’s a Whatzit? A Whatzit is anything you wear or carry that is unusual—a unique pin, an interesting purse, a strange tie, or an amusing hat. A Whatzit is any object that draws people’s attention and inspires them to approach you and ask, "Uh, what’s that?" Your Whatzit can be as subtle or overt as your personality and the occasion permit.”

“at some point in our lives, we have to let go of the fantasy of creating a better past.”

Devdutt Pattanaik
“Krishna offers Arjuna two things: what he is and what he has. Arjuna chooses what Krishna is. Duryodhana is happy with what Krishna has. This divide between him and his, me and mine, what one is and what one has, is the difference between seeking the soul and being satisfied with matter.”
Devdutt Pattanaik, Jaya: An Illustrated Retelling of the Mahabharata
