A.C. Bhaktivedanta
“कष्ट भोगने वाले अनेक मनुष्यों में केवल कुछ ही ऐसे हैं जो वास्तव में अपनी स्थिती जानने के जिज्ञासु हैं, जैसे कि वे क्या हैं, वे इस विषम स्थिति में क्यों डाल दिये गये हैं, आदि-आदि। जब तक मनुष्य को अपने कष्टों के विषय में जिज्ञासा नहीं होती, जब तक उसे यह अनुभूति नहीं होती कि वह कष्ट भोगना नहीं अपितु सारे कष्टों का हल ढूँढना चाहता है, उसे सिद्ध मानव नहीं समझना चाहिए। मानवता तभी शुरू होती है जब मन में इस प्रकार की जिज्ञासा उदित होती है। ब्रह्म-सूत्र में इस जिज्ञासा को ब्रह्म-जिज्ञासा कहा गया है। अथातो ब्रह्म-जिज्ञासा। मनुष्य के सारे कार्यकलाप असफल माने जाने चाहिए, यदि वह परब्रह्म के स्वभाव के विषय में जिज्ञासा न करे। अतएव जो लोग यह प्रश्न करना प्रारम्भ कर देते हैं कि वे क्यों कष्ट उठा रहे हैं, या वे कहाँ से आये हैं और मृत्यु के बाद कहाँ जायेंगे, वे ही भगवद्गीता समझने के सुपात्र विद्यार्थी हैं। निष्ठावान विद्यार्थी में भगवान के प्रति आदर भाव भी होना चाहिए। अर्जुन ऐसा ही विद्यार्थी था।”
A.C. Prabhupāda, Srimad Bhagavad Gita Yatharoop

“Revenge is a dish that tastes best when served cold.”
Mario Puzo, The Godfather

Patañjali
“We must have these four sorts of ideas. We must have friendship for all; we must be merciful towards those that are in misery; when people are happy we ought to be happy, and to the wicked we must be indifferent.”
Patañjali, Patanjali Yoga Sutras

Patañjali
“From whom all this universe comes out, in whom all that is born lives, and to whom all returns.”
Patañjali, Patanjali Yoga Sutras

Patañjali
“Everything that we are, is the result of habit. That gives us consolation, because if it is only habit, we can make and unmake it at any time. The samshara is left by these vibrations passing out of our mind, each one of them leaving its result. Our character is the sum-total of these marks, and as per as some particular wave prevails one takes that tone. If good prevail one becomes good, if wickedness takes over, one becomes wicked, if joyfulness, one becomes happy. The only remedy for bad habits is counter habits.”
Patañjali, Patanjali Yoga Sutras
