“Emperor Bharat's empire could be described as the apogee of the feminine way of life - of freedom, passion, beauty. At its best, it is compassionate, creative and especially nurturing towards the weak. But as feminine civilisations decline, they tend to become corrupt, irresponsible and decadent.

― Amish Tripathi, Scion of Ikshvaku

“I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.”

“Your word is not above the law
