“We are all victims of believing that our method of life is the best course of action. Life is trained fighter and if your method of life is keeping your guard down and leaving your face open, you are going to get your ass kicked. Keeping your guard up too much is no good either, because you can’t get any shots in. The best way is to side-step the punches and wait for that one good, clean shot. I was the king of never taking my shots at life. It’s so much easier to cover up. I had my opportunity to land the sweet knockout punch. I had my fist balled up and life’s chin was fully exposed and I froze. It was in that moment that I stuck my chin out and let life knock me out for a long time.”

“तेरे हाथों में है मेरी डोर, तेरे बिन मेरे जीवन का न कोई ओर न कोई छोर, तू ही आदि, तू ही अनंत, तू ही इस मिथ्या जगत का एक मात्र सत्य। तुझसे दूर चाह के भी न जा सकूँ, कोई भी डगर लूँ, कोई भी राह पकडू, आखिर पहुँचू तुझ तक ही। सच कहूँ? अच्छा लगता है मुझे तेरे हाथों की कठपुतली होना! निश्चिंत हूँ मैं, के जो हुआ अच्छा हुआ, जो हो रहा है अच्छा है और जो होगा अच्छा होगा। क्यूंकि, नाज़ुक धागे मेरे इस नन्ही सी ज़िंदगी के लिपटे हैं तेरी सर्वव्याप्त सर्व शक्तिशाली उंगलियो से, तो चलायेगा तू जिधर उधर ही चल दूँगी, तेरा रचा खेल, तेरे दिये सुख और संघर्ष, तेरे बुने ये रेशमी जाल, मनमोहक हैं, और ये जीवन ये तो बस इंतज़ार है मेरा, अपने अस्तित्व के तुझमे फिर से वापस जा मिलने का!”
