Fyodor Dostoevsky
“I don’t know how to be silent when my heart is speaking.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, White Nights

Saadat Hasan Manto
“To tell you the truth, the world seemed full of sad people – those who slept on the uncovered stoops of shops as well as those who lived in high-rise mansions. The man who walks about on foot worries that he doesn’t have decent shoes to wear. The man who rides the automobile frets that he doesn’t have the latest model car. Every man’s complaint is valid in its own way. Every man’s wish is legitimate in its own right.”
Saadat Hasan Manto, Naked Voices: Stories & Sketches

Saadat Hasan Manto
“ज़माने के जिस दौर से हम गुज़र रहे हैं, अगर आप उससे वाकिफ़ नहीं हैं तो मेरे अफसाने पढ़िये और अगर आप इन अफसानों को बरदाश्त नहीं कर सकते तो इसका मतलब है कि ज़माना नाक़ाबिले-बरदाश्त है। मेरी तहरीर(लेखन) में कोई नुक़्स नहीं । जिस नुक़्स को मेरे नाम से मनसूब किया जाता है, वह दरअसल मौजूदा निज़ाम का एक नुक़्स है। मैं हंगामा-पसन्द नहीं हूं और लोगों के ख्यालात में हैज़ान पैदा करना नहीं चाहता। मैं तहज़ीब, तमद्दुन, और सोसाइटी की चोली क्या उतारुंगा, जो है ही नंगी। मैं उसे कपड़े पहनाने की कोशिश भी नहीं करता, क्योंकि यह मेरा काम नहीं, दर्ज़ियों का काम है ।”
Saadat Hasan Manto

David Eagleman
“The thrill of life is not about who we are but about who we are in the process of becoming.”
“Dreams are the means by which the visual cortex prevents takeover.”
Every man can, if he so desires, become the sculptor of his own brain.
—SANTIAGO RAMÓN Y CAJAL (1852–1934), neuroscientist and Nobel laureate”
David Eagleman, Livewired: The Inside Story of the Ever-Changing Brain

Shel Silverstein
“I keep meeting all the right people
At all the wrong times.”
Shel Silverstein, A Light in the Attic
