Quote by António Lobo Antunes

“Lembro-me de outro, um rapaz novo em estado terminal : se nos aproximávamos tirava um pente do bolso do pijama e compunha o cabelo. (…) Se lhe dissesse isto não acreditava: desde quando um camponês é melhor que um doutor? Tínhamos a mesma idade, mais coisa menos coisa. A diferença é que você era um homem e eu um palerma de bata. Não tenho bata há muito.”

“Regrets were strange things. The women you lost, the friendships you failed to nurture when only a little effort would have made the difference; the fights you walked away from - good fights, fighting for justice, for wilderness, for peace, all because it would have been a little inconvenient at the time. Yes, regrets were, indeed, strange things. Regrets, seasoned with age were the things that denied you the peace of slumber - - that deep sleep that nourishes your soul, not the restive, disquieting sleep of the disappointed and the damned.”

The answer is the life of Jesus and Sri Ramkrishna. Others will lead their lives according to the instructions as given to them by their own lives. - Sri Jibankrishna (Diamond)”

“The term ‘Grace’ has been explained by people just to fulfill the vested interest. But what is its actual meaning? Thakur (Sri Ramkrishna) has said ‘When God within the body wishes to liberate himself, then there will be actual liberation of ‘Atma’ or ‘Soul’. That means spontaneous evolution of life power. This spontaneous evolution which individual gets is called grace. Otherwise the term ‘Grace’ is an abstract idea.”

“No work can be done without any self-interest in it. It is but a self-deception and a false consolation that a good work is done without any self-interest in it. Yes, teachers like Buddha, Jesus, Sankar, Shri Ramkrishna taught the human race. But their case was absolutely different from others as they had God’s commandment.”
