Amish Tripathi
“A person's ethics and character are not tested in good times. It is only in bad times that a person shows how steadfast he is to his dharma.”
Amish Tripathi, The Immortals of Meluha

Neil Postman
“It is not sufficient to know the right answers. One must also know the questions that produced them. Indeed, one must also know what a question is, for not every sentence that ends with a rising intonation or begins with an interrogative is necessarily a question. There are sentences that look like questions but cannot generate any meaningful answers, and, as Francis Bacon said, if they linger in our minds, they become obstructions to clear thinking.”
Neil Postman

Thomas Merton
“The beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves, the resolution not to twist them to fit our own image.”
Thomas Merton, The Way of Chuang Tzu

Amy Bloom
“The past is a candle at great distance: too close to let you quit, too far to comfort you.”
Amy Bloom, Away

“Love is a rebellious bird,
that nobody can tame,
and you call him quite in vain,
if it suits him not to come.”
Ludovic Halévy
