Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“You can't force love, all you can do is, be vulnerable and reach out despite your insecurity. Whether the person of your heart responds back, is not in your hands, but a matter of cosmic serendipity.”

“A “smirt” guy once said, if you don't read books you have no advantage over those who can't read. Well, I can't even spell “smirt”, and I say, read all you like - if you don't have the basic capacity to listen, you have no advantage over the animal.”

“Violence only attacks the body, but it is non-violence that has the power to influence the soul and reshape it towards a peaceful future.”

“Broken (The Sonnet) The most effective people, On earth are all broken. The people with most excellence, Are all broken. There is no excellence without brokenness, For brokenness builds character. Broken, and in agony, that's how we grow, One who knows pain knows to help another. Pain is not our enemy, Pain is what keeps us alert. To avoid pain is to avoid growth, To avoid pain is to keep the heart shut. Embrace pain, and pain will have no hold over you. Once accepted, in brokenness you'll find yourself anew.”
