Oscar Wilde
“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”
Oscar Wilde

Sudhir Kakar
“Certainly, Gandhi is not inferior to Christ in goodness and sanctity, and he surpasses him in touching humility. Gandhi is the prophet of hope in this age of pessimism and disillusionment. He is a promise of sanity in the madness induced by our world's heedless drinking at the fount of war.”
Sudhir Kakar, The Seeker

Robert Darnton
“News in not what happened but a story about what happened.”
Robert Darnton

Sudhir Kakar
“It is better to grope in the dark and wade through a million errors to reach the Truth than to entrust oneself to someone who knows not that he knows not. Has a man ever learnt swimming by tying a stone to his neck? So let me go my own way even if it is the wrong one.”
Sudhir Kakar, The Seeker

Rudyard Kipling
“Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind.”
Rudyard Kipling
