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

Rudyard Kipling
“If history were taught in the form of stories, it would never be forgotten.”
Rudyard Kipling, The Collected Works of Rudyard Kipling: Captains Courageous - Kim

“Death is inevitable. But the meaning people attach to death, its causes and aftermath, is culturally given. Without meaning, without culture making sense of things, life would be impossible.”
Richard B. Lee, The Dobe Ju/'Hoansi

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

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
