Quotes by Udayakumar D.S.  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Mothers know exactly what their kids are going through. It must be a complex interplay of genes and hormones and some unknown links from the nearly ten months spent inside their body. Somehow, they sniff our sadness, somehow, they perceive our fault lines, and somehow, they connect with us on a subconscious level.”
Udayakumar DS, Life of a Sunset Kid

“I am water, the earth’s first daughter
Oh human,
Learn from me where you belong on this planet
You live high or low, in a palace or ghetto
Be versatile, flowing with life’s needs
Solid as a rock when life hits you hard
Melting like snow when a comrade sob
Living selflessly, giving with no expectations
Bringing more smiles than regrets
Your deeds hold stead while thou leave the earth
Return as the best or enjoy a long rest!”
Udayakumar DS, Life of a Sunset Kid

“I was born with Chaos, my first companion in this life, like a conjoined twin brother. He knows me in and out and never leaves me alone.”
Udayakumar DS, Life of a Sunset Kid

“Don’t walk in front of me… I may not follow
Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead
Walk beside me… just be my friend”
Albert Camus

“If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.”
Mark Twain

“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”
Martin Luther King Jr., A Testament of Hope: The Essential Writings and Speeches

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
