Paramahansa Yogananda
“The adhesive force by which all three bodies are held together is desire. The power of unfulfilled desires is the root of all man's slavery.”
Paramahansa Yogananda, Autobiography of a Yogi

Paramahansa Yogananda
“The nineteen elements of the astral body are mental, emotional, and lifetronic. The nineteen components are intelligence; ego; feeling; mind (sense-consciousness); five instruments of knowledge, the subtle counterparts of the senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch; five instruments of action, the mental correspondence for the executive abilities to procreate, excrete, talk, walk, and exercise manual skill; and five instruments of life force, those empowered to perform the crystallizing, assimilating, eliminating, metabolizing, and circulating functions of the body. This subtle astral encasement of nineteen elements survives the death of the physical body, which is made of sixteen gross metallic and nonmetallic elements.”
Paramahansa Yogananda, Autobiography of a Yogi

K. Natwar Singh
“Equality is a receding dream. No level playing fields exist. With apologies to the great Jean Jacques Rousseau, man is not born free. Equality between human beings is impossible, although they could achieve a measure of fraternity.”
K. Natwar Singh, One Life Is Not Enough

Malala Yousafzai
“The boys learn the Quran by heart, rocking back and forth as they recite. They learn that there is no such thing as science or literature, that dinosaurs never existed and man never went to the moon.”
Malala Yousafzai, I Am Malala: The Story of the Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban

Malala Yousafzai
“told him that instead of focusing on eradicating terrorism through war, he should focus on eradicating it through education.”
Malala Yousafzai, I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and was Shot by the Taliban
