John Steinbeck
“Perhaps the best conversationalist in the world is the man who helps others to talk.”
John Steinbeck, East of Eden

“Elite students climb confidently until they reach a level of competition sufficiently intense to beat their dreams out of them. Higher education is the place where people who had big plans in high school get stuck in fierce rivalries with equally smart peers over conventional careers like management consulting and investment banking. For the privilege of being turned into conformists, students (or their families) pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in skyrocketing tuition that continues to outpace inflation. Why are we doing this to ourselves?”
Peter Thiel, Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future

C.L.R. James
“What do they know of cricket who only cricket know?”
C.L.R. James, Beyond a Boundary

गुलज़ार
“किताबें मांगने,
गिरने, उठाने के बहाने
रिश्ते बनते थे
उन का क्या होगा......”
Gulzar

Hermann Hesse
“Have you also learned that secret from the river; that there is no such thing as time?" That the river is everywhere at the same time, at the source and at the mouth, at the waterfall, at the ferry, at the current, in the ocean and in the mountains, everywhere and that the present only exists for it, not the shadow of the past nor the shadow of the future.”
Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha
