Quote by Monika Ajay Kaul

“Choose.. *not to follow the conventional path, but dance to the rhythm of your own aspirations. *not to fear failure, but to see it as a stepping stone toward evolving. *not to conform, but to write your unique story with valorous strokes of individuality. *not to blend in, but to stand out like a lone star in the night sky. *not to be a mere spectator, but an active architect of your own narrative. *not to be bound by expectations, but to revel in the glorious freedom of your authentic self.”

“Men would no longer be victims of nature or of their own largely irrational societies: reason would triumph; universal harmonious cooperation, true history, would at last begin. For if this was not so, do the ideas of progress, of history, have any meaning? Is there not a movement, however tortuous, from ignorance to knowledge, from mythical thought and childish fantasies to perception of reality face to face, to knowledge of true goals, true values as well as truths of fact? Can history be a mere purposeless succession of events, caused by a mixture of material factors and the play of random selection, a tale full of sound and fury signifying nothing? This was unthinkable. The day would dawn when men and women would take their lives in their own hands and not be self-seeking beings or the playthings of blind forces that they did not understand. It was, at the very least, not impossible to conceive that such an earthly paradise could be; and if conceivable we could, at any rate, try to march towards it. That has been at the centre of ethical thought from the Greeks to the Christian visionaries of the Middle Ages, from the Renaissance to progressive thought in the last century; and indeed, is believed by many to this day.”

“Sometimes I fear that the drug-free Flynn – searingly manic, then catastrophically depressed – is who he really is. But because in that form he is not acceptable to conventional society, he has to be drugged so that his emotions are tempered and his behaviour controlled. Perhaps we are blindly living in an Orwellian society where individualism is feared and the biggest pressure is the one to conform. Perhaps Flynn is sane and the rest of the world is mad. The thoughts go round and round in my head.”

“The essence of a poet lies not in articulating thoughts, but in bleeding raw emotion onto the page. It's a tumultuous dance, a desperate clinging to individuality in a world striving for uniformity. To feel is to be an anomaly, a rebel against the current. And therein lies the poet's struggle - a lifelong fight to preserve the untamed spirit within, a battle waged with every word.”

“The more we selficate, the more we become depressed and lonely.”
