Quote by Matt Orlando

“Two weeks.  He’d only been here two weeks.  Five weeks ago, he was a cop.  Now he was staring at the manicured toes of a pretty decent looking cougar as they swayed back and forth three feet off the ground.  She was wearing that light blue silk robe.  Maybe it was silk.  He didn’t really have a clue.  But she had looked good in it.”

This was not because they had sounded good on paper or had been presented by a world-famous researcher, but because I saw they worked through my experience.”

“We didn’t need to read the puranas or epics, we just grew up listening to the stories narrated by our grandmothers. It caught our fancy, it fired and enriched our imagination, gave ideas and metaphors, and colour to our language! It is sad that the oral tradition kept alive by grandmothers is slowly dying! Though there are exceptions! I was pleasantly surprised when I heard my daughter-in-law sing Krishna songs in her mother tongue Gujarati, and Ashtapati while bathing her babies or when putting them to sleep!”
