Û “Well done” is better than “well said”
Û What a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive
Û What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger
Û What goes around comes around (You will eventually have to face the consequences of your actions towards
others as people tend to behave towards you as you have behaved towards
others.)
Û What goes up must come down
Û What you see is what you get
Û What you sow is what you reap
Û What’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander
Û When ignorance is bliss, ’tis folly to be wise
Û Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?
Û Willful waste makes woeful want
Û Winning isn’t everything
Û We ourselves feel that we are doing is just a drop in the ocean,butthe ocean would be less without that drop
Û What’s done can’t be undone(In life there are some things once done or decisions once made cannot be
changed; malicious words once uttered or harmful actions once done
cannot be taken back.)
Û When in Rome do as the Romans do(When one is in a new place, country or situation, he must adapt himself to
the new manners and customs.)
Û When the cat is away, the mice will play(When law enforcers are not present, certain public members will take the
opportunity to break the law.)
Û Where there’s a will, there’s a way(When a person really wants to do something, he will find a way of doing
it.)

Albert Einstein
1. “Great spirits have always encountered violent oppositionfrom mediocre minds.”
2. “Whoever undertakes to set himself up as judge in the field oftruth and knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of theGods.”
3. “When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I cometo the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more tome than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge.”
4. “The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide yoursources.”
5. “The only source of knowledge is experience.”
6. “The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is afaithful servant. We have created a society that honours theservant and has forgotten the gift.”
7. “I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledgeis limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
8. “We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has,of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.”
9. “The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity hasits own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awewhen he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of themarvellous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose aholy curiosity.”
10. “Reading, after a certain age, diverts the mind too much fromits creative pursuits. Any man, who read too much and useshis own brain too little, falls into lazy habits of thinking.”
11. “Intelligence makes clear to us the inter-relationship of means and ends. But mere thinking cannot give us a sense of theultimate and fundamental ends. To make clear thesefundamental ends and valuations and to set them fast in theemotional life of the individual, seems to me precisely themost important function which religion has to form in thesocial life of man.”

12. “During the last century, and part of the one before, it waswidely held that there was an unreconcilable conflict between knowledge and belief. The opinion prevailed amoungadvanced minds that it was time that belief should bereplaced increasingly by knowledge; belief that did not itselfrest on knowledge was superstition, and as such had to beopposed. According to this conception, the sole function ofeducation was to open the way to thinking and knowing, andthe school, as the outstanding organ for the people’seducation, must serve that end exclusively.” Quoting Newton.
13. “Knowledge of what is does not open the door directly towhat should be. If one asks the whence derives the authorityof fundamental ends, since they cannot be stated and justifedmerely by reason, one can only answer: they exist in a healthy society as powerful traditions, which act upon the conductand aspirations and judgements of the individuals; they arethere, that is, as something living, without its being necessaryto find justification for their existence. They come into beingnot through demonstration but through revelation, throughthe medium of powerful personalities. One must not attemptto justify them, but rather to sense their nature simply andclearly.”
Charles Dickens

Dramais akin to the other inventions of man in that it ought to helpus to know more, and not merely to spend our feelings.
9. A playwright . . . is . . . the litmus paper of the arts. He’s got tobe, because if he isn’t working on the same wave length as theaudience, no one would know what in hell he was talkingabout. He is a kind of psychic journalist, even when he’s great.
10. The closer a man approaches tragedy, the more intense is hisconcentration of emotion upon the fixed point of hiscommitment, which is to say the closer he approaches what in life we call fanaticism.
Maya Angelou
1. For Africa to me . . . is more than a glamorous fact. It is ahistorical truth. No man can know where he is going unless he knows exactly where he has been and exactly how he arrivedat his present place.
2. The fact that the adult American Negro female emerges aformidable character is often met with amazement, distasteand even belligerance. It is seldom accepted as an inevitableoutcome of the struggle won by survivors, and deservesrespect if not enthusiastic acceptance.
3. I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by thelapels. Life’s a bitch. You’ve got to go out and kick ass.

1. I believe a man is born first unto himself – for the happydeveloping of himself, while the world is a nursery, and thepretty things are to be snatched for, and pleasant thingstasted; some people seem to exist thus right to the end. Butmost are born again on entering manhood; then they are born to humanity, to a consciousness of all the laughing, and thenever-ceasing murmur of pain and sorrow that comes fromthe terrible multitudes of brothers.
2. An artist is only an ordinary man with a greater potentiality –same stuff, same make up, only more force. And the strongdriving force usually finds his weak spot, and he goescranked, or goes under.
3. It is so much more difficult to live with one’s body than withone’s soul. One’s body is so much more exacting – what itwon’t have it won’t have, and nothing can make bitter intosweet.
4. One sheds one’s sicknesses in books – repeats and presentsagain one’s emotions, to be master of them.
5. I can’t bear art that you can walk round and admire. A bookshould be either a bandit or a rebel or a man in the crowd.

7. I believe that a man is converted when first he hears the low,vast murmur of life, of human life, troubling his hithertounconscious self.
8. Brute force crushes many plants. Yet the plants rise again.The Pyramids will not last a moment compared with thedaisy. And before Buddha or Jesus spoke the nightingalesang, and long after the words of Jesus and Buddha are goneinto oblivion, the nightingale still will sing. Because it isneither preaching nor commanding nor urging. It is justsinging. And in the beginning was not a Word, but a chirrup.
9. This is the very worst wickedness, that we refuse toacknowledge the passionate evil that is in us. This makes ussecret and rotten.
10. The only justice is to follow the sincere intuition of the soul –angry or gentle. Anger is just, and pity is just, but judgementis never just.
11. One could laugh at the world better if it didn’t mix tenderkindliness with its brutality.
12. We only seem to learn from Life that Life doesn’t matter somuch as it seemed to do – it’s not so burningly important,after all, what happens. We crawl, like blinking sea-creatures, out of the ocean onto a spur of rock, we creep over thepromontory bewildered and dazzled and hurting ourselves,then we drop in the ocean on the other side; and the littletransit doesn’t matter so much.
13. A man has no religion who has not slowly and painfullygathered one together, adding to it, shaping it; and one’sreligion is never complete and final, it seems, but must always be undergoing modification.
14. The human being is a most curious creature. He thinks he hasgot one soul, and he has got dozens.
15. Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passionmoves you, say what you’ve got to say, and say it hot.
16. I cannot cure myself of that most woeful of youth’s follies –thinking that those, who care about us, will care for the things that mean much to us.

Bruce Lee-the famous martial artist andfilm star (Deceased)
1. Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless – like water.
Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup;
You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle;
You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot.
Now water can *flow* or it can *crash*!
Be water, my friend.
2. When the opponent expand, I contract;
When he contracts, I expand;
And when there is an opportunity,
I do not hit – it hits all by itself.
3. As long as we separate this “oneness” into two, we won’tachieve realisation.
4. Not being tense but ready. Not thinking but not dreaming.Not being set but flexible. Liberation from the uneasy sense of confinement. It is being wholly and quietly alive, aware andalert, ready for whatever may come.
5. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is notenough; we must do.
6. A good teacher protects his pupils from his own influence.
7. True refinement seeks simplicity.
8. Ideas are the beginning of all achievement.
9. If you want to do your duty properly, you should do just alittle more than that.
10. A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often servessimply as something to aim at.
11. One great cause of failure is lack of concentration.
Bhagavad Gita
1. No matter what conditions you encounter in life, your right isonly to the works – not to the fruits thereof. You should not be impelled to act for selfish reasons, nor should you be attached to inaction.

12. Krishna said,”Do you duty, Arjun, as your nature dictates. Allwork fetters, as all fire gives smoke. Only selfless duty saves.Fix your mind on me. Surrender all deeds to me. All problemswill be solved by my grace. Pride will lead only to your moralruin. If, filled with pride, you say, ‘I will not fight,’ it is all invain. You are foolish. Fight you will, your nature will makeyou fight. Your karma will make you fight. You will fight inspite of yourself.”
13. The Blessed Lord said: You are grieving over those who arenot fit to be grieved for, yet you speak words like a great manof wisdom. But the wise do not grieve neither over the livingnor over the dead. Never did I not exist, nor did you nor thesekings. Nor shall we ever cease to exist in the future.
14. Krishna drove the white-horsed chariot to where Bhishmastood, shining like the sun. Obscured by an arrowy showerfrom Bhishma, Arjun’s chariot was hidden from view, butKrishna, with great skill and patience, drove the woundedhorse through. With his cloud-booming Gandiva bow, Arjunshot Bhishma’s bow out of his hands.
15. Urged on by Krishna, Arjun displayed his full prowess. Heseemed like the Destroyer himself at the end of creation.Many heroes, hoping to win glory and with death as theirgoal, came befoe Arjun as he let loose his shafts. They fell bythe thousands. Arjun carved a path through the Kauravas.
16. Krishna drove the horses forward and the fine chariot movedinto the center of the field. Krishna smiled, “Just behold, OArjun, all the Kurus assembled here.” Arjun looked across thefield. Krishna could understand Arjun’s mind. Thelong-awaited time for war had arrived – a terrible fratricidalwar. There was now no turning back. Suddenly seeing thehorror of it before him, Arjun gazed at his relatives andfriends arrayed across from him—men who were like fathers,brothers, sons, and grandsons, as well as teachers, uncles,friends, in-laws, and well-wishers.
17. Life without Krishna has no joy for me. Tell me what is goodfor me. I am a wanderer with a hollow heart.
18. Arjun chose Krishna, though Krishna had vowed to lay downhis arms on the battlefield ...
... Krishna asked: “Why did you pick me, knowing I would notfight?”

19. Krishna threw down the reins and leapt from the chariot.Taking up a nearby chariot wheel, he raised it above his headas if it were his own favourite weapon, the Sudarshan chakra.He ran toward Bhishma as a lion might run at an elephant.The end of his yellow silk garment fluttered in the dusty air,resembling lightning dancing in a dark cloud. The wheel inhis hand seemed to glow with his own effulgence, and itlooked as beautiful as the primeval lotus from which Brahmawas born. Krishna’s dark arm appeared like the stalk of thelotus, and his charming face, covered with beads ofperspiration, was its filament.
20. Pandu’s sons sat silently, overtaken with affection for theirdying grandfather. Seeing this, Bhishmadeva was himselfoverwhelmed with love. Tears sprang to his eyes and he said,trembling, “Oh, my dear son Yudhisthir, what terriblesufferings and injustices you good souls have suffered, eventhough you are the son of religion personified. Only becauseyou were protected by the brahmins, religion and theSupreme Lord himself, did you manage to survive.”
21. The Blessed Lord said: This form of Mine that you have seen is very difficult to behold; even gods are ever desirous ofbeholding this form.
22. O Arjun, the scorcher of your foes, it is by single mindeddevotion alone that I can be known, seen in reality, and alsoentered into. O Son of Pandu, he who performs actions forMe, who considers Me as the Supreme Goal, who is Mydevotee, and is devoid of attachments; who is withoutanimosity towards all living beings, he alone attains Me.
23. Deciding to surrender himself to whatever Krishna advised,Arjun said,”O Krishna, I am confused about my duty and have lost all composure due to weakness of heart. Surely I ambeing consumed by miserly and selfish considerations, but Iam not able to overcome them. In this condition I ask you toplease tell me what is best for me. Now I am your disciple anda soul surrendered unto you. Please instruct me. I can see nomeans to drive away this grief. Even winning a prosperouskingdom equal to that of the gods will not assuage my sorrow. O Govinda, I will not fight.”

Krishna now smiled more broadly. he was pleased that Arjun,his dear friend, was ready to accept him as teacher and guide.Holding up his hand in blessing, he said, “Although you arespeaking learned words from the scriptures, you are stillmourning for something unworthy of grief.

Bill Gates—advice for kids
To anyone with kids of any age, or anyone who has ever been akid, here’s some advice Bill Gates dished out at a high school speechabout 11 things they did not learn in school.
Rule 1 : Life is not fair...get used to it.
Rule 2 : The world won’t care about your self-esteem. Theworld will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feelgood about yourself.
Rule 3 : You will NOT make 40 thousand dollars a year right out of high school. You won’t be a vice-president with a car phone, untilyou earn both.
Rule 4 : If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get aboss. He doesn’t have tenure.
Rule 5 : Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Yourgrandparents had a different word for burger flipping – they called it opportunity.
Rule 6 : If you mess up, it’s not your parents’ fault, so don’twhine about your mistakes, learn from them.
Rule 7 : Before you were born, your parents weren’t as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaningyour clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you are. Sobefore you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parents’generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.
Rule 8 : Your school may have done away with winners andlosers but life has not. In some schools they have abolished failinggrades and they’ll give you as many times as you want to get theright answer. This doesn’t bear the slightest resemblance toANYTHING in real life.
Rule 9 : Life is not divided into semesters. You don’t getsummers off and very few employers are interested in helping youfind yourself. You have to do that on your own time.
Rule 10 : Television is NOT real life. In real life, people actuallyhave to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
Rule 11 : Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up workingfor one.

33. Manliness consists not in bluff, bravado or lordliness. Itconsists in daring to do the right and facing consequenceswhether it is in matters social, political or other. It consists indeeds, not in words.
34. What do I think of Western civilization? I think it would be avery good idea.
35. Better far than cowardice is killing and being killed in battle.

38. Man can never be a woman’s equal in the spirit of selflessservice with which nature has endowed her.
39. Manliness consists in making circumstances subserve toourselves.
40. Non-violence and cowardice go ill together. I can imagine afully armed man to be at heart a coward. Possession of armsimplies an element of fear, if not cowardice. But truenon-violence is an impossibility without the possession ofunadulterated fearlessness.

63. I am prepared to die, but there is no cause for which I amprepared to kill.
64. Humility cannot be an observance by itself. For, it does notlend itself to being deliberately practised. It is, however, anindispensable test of ‘Ahimsa.’ For one who has ‘Ahimsa’ inhim it becomes part of his very nature.
65. The first condition of humaneness is a little humility and alittle diffidence about the correctness of one’s conduct and alittle receptiveness.
66. I claim to be an average man of less than average ability. Ihave not the shadow of a doubt that any man or woman canachieve what I have, if he or she would make the same effortand cultivate the same hope and faith.

67. Intolerance betrays want of faith in one’s cause.
68. Is it not enough to know the evil to shun it? If not, we should
be sincere enough to admit that we love evil too well to give it
up.
69. It is any day better to stand erect with a broken and bandaged
head than to crawl on one’s belly, in order to be able to save
one’s head.
70. It is my own firm belief that the strength of the soul grows in
proportion as you subdue the flesh.
71. Surely conversion is a matter between man and his Maker
who alone knows his creatures’ hearts. A conversion without
a clean heart is, in my opinion, a denial of God and Religion.
Conversion without cleanliness of heart can only be a matter
of sorrow, not joy, to a godly person.
72. Restraint never ruins one’s health. What ruins it, is not
restraint but outward suppression. A really self-restrained
person grows every day from strength to strength and from
peace to more peace. The very first step in self-restraint is the
restraint of thoughts.
73. Non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as is cooperation
with good.
74. Must I do all the evil I can before I learn to shun it? Is it not
enough to know the evil to shun it? If not, we should be
sincere enough to admit that we love evil too well to give it
up.
75. Men often become what they believe themselves to be. If I
believe I cannot do something, it makes me incapable of
doing it. But when I believe I can, then I acquire the ability to
do it even if I didn’t have it in the beginning.
76. Let everyone try and find that as a result of daily prayer he
adds something new to his life, something with which
nothing can be compared.
77. It is through truth non-violence that I can have some glimpse
of God. Truth non-violence are my God. They are the obverse
and reverse of the same coin.

78. It is man’s social nature which distinguishes him from thebrute creation. If it is his privilege to be independent, it isequally his duty to be inter-dependent. Only an arrogant manwill claim to be independent of everybody else and beself-contained.
79. I will far rather see the race of man extinct than that weshould become less than beasts by making the noblest ofGod’s creation, woman, the object of our lust.
80. Have I not gazed at the marvellous mystery of the starry vault, hardly ever tiring of the great panorama?
81. God forbid that India should ever take to industrialism afterthe manner of the west... keeping the world in chains. If ournation took to similar economic exploitation, it would stripthe world bare like locusts.
82. Everyone has faith in God though everyone does not know it.For everyone has faith in himself and that multiplied to thenth degree is God. The sum total of all that lives is God. Wemay not be God, but we are of God, even as a little drop ofwater is of the ocean.
83. Destruction is not the law of humans. Man lives freely only byhis readiness to die, if need be, at the hands of his brother,never by killing him. Every murder or other injury, no matterfor what cause, committed or inflicted on another is a crimeagainst humanity.
84. A certain degree of physical harmony and comfort isnecessary, but above a certain level it becomes a hindranceinstead of a help. Therefore, the ideal of creating an unlimited number of wants and satisfying them seems to be a delusionand a snare.
85. It is easy enough to be friendly to one’s friends. But tobefriend the one who regards himself as your enemy is thequintessence of true religion. The other is mere business.
86. I will far rather see the race of man extinct than that weshould become less than beasts by making the noblest ofGod’s creation, woman, the object of our lust.

89. Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correctunderstanding.
90. Are creeds such simple things like the clothes which a mancan change at will and put on at will? Creeds are such forwhich people live for ages and ages.
