“We get out of life what we bring to it. There is not a dream which may not come true if we have the energy which determines our own fate. We can always get what we want if we will it intensely enough... So few people succeed greatly because so few people conceive a great end, working towards it without giving up. We all know that the man who works steadily for money gets rich; the man who works day and night for fame or power reaches his goal. And those who work deeper, more spiritual achievements will find them too. It may come when we no longer have any use of it, but if we have been willing it long enough, it will come!”
― Ruskin Bond, Children of India

“War is too big for us. Poverty is too alienating for us. Corruption is too complicated for us. But the killing of innocent voiceless animals for food that we relish in our dining rooms-that is something we can change.”
― Shivya Nath, The Shooting Star

“Odd, how some little incident, some snatch of conversation, comes back to one again and again, in the most unlikely places.”
― Ruskin Bond, Petals on the Ganga

“Food is to be relished, not eaten. It’s to be cherished, not taken.”
― Lekshmi Gopinathan, This Delicious Life
