Book cover for निर्मला
सांस का भरोसा ही क्या और इसी नश्वरता पर हम अभिलाषाओं के कितने विशाल भवन बनाते हैं! नहीं जानते, नीचे जानेवाली सांस ऊपर आयेगी या नहीं, पर सोचते इतनी दूर की हैं, मानो हम अमर हैं।

Rupi Kaur
“every time you
tell your daughter
you yell at her
out of love
you teach her to confuse
anger with kindness
which seems like a good idea
till she grows up to
trust men who hurt her
cause they look so much
like you.”
― Rupi Kaur, Milk and honey

Dr. Patricia Dsouza Lobo
“Be sensitive to those around you, sometimes they could be silent but screaming for help from within”
― Patricia Dsouza, When Roses are Crushed

“Everything we say has a consequence—positive or negative. If we don’t know our big-picture goal, our communication can affect the outcome in a negative way.”
― Kim Zoller, 16 Communication Secrets

Vishnu Sakharam Khandekar
“स्त्री के शरीर और पुरुष के शरीर में स्त्री और पुरुष के मन में, स्त्री और पुरुष के जीवन में, कितना अन्तर होता है! पुरुष अमूर्त के पीछे सहज दौड़ता है। इसीलिए उसे कीर्ति, आत्मा, पराक्रम, परमेश्वर आदि बातों में तुरन्त आकर्षण लगने लगता है! किन्तु स्त्री इन बातों पर आसानी से मोहित नहीं होती। उसे प्रीति, पति, संतान, सेवा, घर, गृहस्थी आदि मूर्त बातों का अधिक आकर्षण होता है। वह संयम बरतती है त्याग भी करती है किन्तु वह सब मूर्त बातों के लिए! उसे अमूर्त के प्रति उतना लगाव नहीं होता जितना पुरुष को। अपना सर्वस्व देकर पूजने के लिए अपने आँसुओं का अभिषेक करने के लिए स्त्री को एक मूर्ति की आवश्यकता हुआ करती है। पुरुष स्वभावतः आकाश का पुजारी है! स्त्री को धरती की पूजा अधिक प्यारी है!”
― Vishnu Sakharam Khandekar, Yayati: A Classic Tale of Lust

J. Krishnamurti
“Creativeness is quite a different state of being, is it not? It is a state in which the self is absent, in which the mind is no longer a focus of our experiences, our ambitions, our pursuits and our desires. Creativeness is not a continuous state, it is new from moment to moment, it is a movement in”
― Jiddu Krishnamurti, The First and Last Freedom
