I go on reading continuously . I can read all type of books , newspapers pretty much everything .. And while i burrow through them i chance across some good quotes ..
Got this from Dean Koontz book ...
Be to do.Not to be done to....
Seize the moment . Act , Don't React....
Catch the wave, shoot the curl , skeg it , nail it , don't be nailed,exist to live ,never exist to exist ...
Existance is an entrance , not an exit.
To be or not to be is not the question ...
**********************************
A sanskrit sloka ( translated to english )
The Gods bless each one of us with the qualities we need to endure our lives. Its up to us to use how we use these qualities
**********************************
This one is by Henry Thoreau
Great God I ask thee for no meaner pelf
Than that I may not disappoint myself,
That in my action I may soar as high,
As I can now discern with my clear eye
**********************************
By Frank Herbert
The people I distrust most are those who want to improve our lives but have only one course of action.
**********************************
Edward Barnard in "Fall of Edward Barnard"
Beauty you seldom see face to face. Look at it well, for what you see now you will never see again , since the moment is transitory, but it will be an imperishable memory in your heart. You touch eternity
**********************************
By Somerset Maughan in The Razor's Edge
The more he learns , the more he wants and the more unhappy he becomes.
**********************************
By Somerset Maughan in The Back of Beyond
One mustn’t expect gratitude. It’s a thing that no has right to. After all, you do good because it gives you pleasure. It’s the purest form of happiness there is. To expect thanks for it is really asking too much. If you get it well , well , it’s like a bonus on the shares on which you have already received the dividend; it’s grand, but you mustn’t look upon as your due.
**********************************
By Somerset Maughan in The Back of Beyond
Sometimes you seem as hard as nails and then you talk so that one thinks you are almost human, and then, just as one thinks one’s misjudged you and you have heart after all, you come out with something that just shocks one. I suppose that’s what they call a cynic
Moon’s reply : If to look truth in the face and not resent it when it’s unpalatable, and take human nature as you find it, smiling when it’s absurd and grieved without exaggeration when it’s pitiful, is to be cynical then I suppose I am a cynic. Mostly human nature is both absurd and pitiful, but if life has taught you tolerance you find it more to smile at than to weep.

People in their right minds never take pride in their talents.

By Amish in The Secret of the Nagas
It doesn't matter if the people that evil being committed against don't fight back. It doesn't matter if the entire world chooses to look the other way.. Always remember this. You don't live with the consequences of other people's karma. You live with consequences of your own.
********************************
By Paulo Coelho
People may forget what we said, people may forget what we did, but never forget how we made them feel.

If it happens , God let it happens ,and when we say "I don't understand" , God replies "I don't care"
Stephen king in The Green Mile

The Best way to clean the system is to own it ..

If we seek something ,the same thing is seeking us. Nevertheless , be prepared for everything.
Paulo Coelho
********************************
Things you do might not be your passion but that might be the best opportunity that life gave you.
********************************
Freedom is not the absence of commitments , but the ability to choose and commit one to what is best for self.
********************************
The humility of a warrior is not the same humility as that of a servile man. The warrior does not lower his head to anyone, and nor does he allow anyone to bow before him. The servile man, on the other hand, kneels before anyone he believes to be more powerful, and demands that the people under his command behave in a similar fashion before him.
