Christopher D. Wallis
“Both thoughts and feelings are vibrations of citta, or the “mind-stuff.” They are actually two ends of a single spectrum. If this were not true, we could never talk about our feelings or feel strongly about our ideas. The difference between thoughts and feelings is simply that thoughts are vibrations (vṛttis) with a greater linguistic or logical component, while feelings are vibrations with a greater affective charge. The difference is not absolute but one of degree. For example, when we feel sad, that feeling is nearly always strongly tied to a specific thought, often unconscious. Becoming aware of that thought can help us become unstuck, tapping the latent energy of the feeling.”
Christopher D. Wallis, Tantra Illuminated: The Philosophy, History, and Practice of a Timeless Tradition

Kobe Bryant
“A lot of people say they want to be great, but they’re not willing to make the sacrifices necessary to achieve greatness. They have other concerns, whether important or not, and they spread themselves out. That’s totally fine. After all, greatness is not for everybody.”
Kobe Bryant, The Mamba Mentality: How I Play

हरिवंश राय बच्चन
“मदिरालय जाने को घर से चलता है पीनेवाला, ‘किस पथ से जाऊँ’ असमंजस में है वह भोलाभाला; अलग-अलग पथ बतलाते सब पर मैं यह बतलाता हूँ… ‘राह पकड़ तू एक चला चल, पा जाएगा मधुशाला”
Harivansh Rai Bachchan, मधुशाला

Susan Forward
“Whether adult children of toxic parents were beaten when little or left alone too much, sexually abused or treated like fools, overprotected or overburdened by guilt, they almost all suffer surprisingly similar symptoms: damaged self-esteem, leading to self-destructive behavior. In one way or another, they almost all feel worthless, unlovable, and inadequate.”
Susan Forward, Toxic Parents: Overcoming Their Hurtful Legacy and Reclaiming Your Life

Anand Giridharadas
“There is no denying that today’s elite may be among the more socially concerned elites in history. But it is also, by the cold logic of numbers, among the more predatory in history.”
Anand Giridharadas, Winners Take All: The Elite Charade of Changing the World
