Karan’s Quotes

“It is not half so important to know as to feel.”

“ಇಲ್ಲಿ
ಯಾರೂ ಮುಖ್ಯರಲ್ಲ
ಯಾರೂ ಅಮುಖ್ಯರಲ್ಲ
ಯಾವುದೂ ಯ:ಕಶ್ಚಿತವಲ್ಲ!

ಇಲ್ಲಿ
ಯಾವುದಕ್ಕೂ ಮೊದಲಿಲ್ಲ
ಯಾವುದಕ್ಕೂ ತುದಿಯಿಲ್ಲ
ಯಾವುದೂ ಎಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ನಿಲ್ಲುವುದು ಇಲ್ಲ
ಕೊನೆ ಮುಟ್ಟುವುದು ಇಲ್ಲ

ಇಲ್ಲಿ
ಅವಸರವೂ ಸಾವಧಾನದ ಬೆನ್ನೇರಿದೆ!

ಇಲ್ಲಿ
ಎಲ್ಲಕ್ಕೂ ಇದೆ ಅರ್ಥ
ಯಾವುದೂ ಅಲ್ಲ ವ್ಯರ್ಥ
ನೀರೆಲ್ಲವೂ ತೀರ್ಥ!”
― Kuvempu, ಮಲೆಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಮದುಮಗಳು | Malegalali Madumagalu

“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”
― Frank Zappa

“If you know someone who’s depressed, please resolve never to ask them why. Depression isn’t a straightforward response to a bad situation; depression just is, like the weather.

Try to understand the blackness, lethargy, hopelessness, and loneliness they’re going through. Be there for them when they come through the other side. It’s hard to be a friend to someone who’s depressed, but it is one of the kindest, noblest, and best things you will ever do.”
― Stephen Fry
