Quote by Gunjan Porwal

“Humans had turned out to be selfish, much more than Vyasa had ever imagined. They lived for themselves, loved themselves more than others, and often harboured envy, jealousy, greed and lust. In fact, Vibhishan felt that many asuras of yesteryears were more righteous than some humans of today’s generation. The horrors humans committed on one another was beyond forgiveness.”

“In my 12th / Intermediate Level in Ravenshaw College, I read the novel "Train to Pakistan" by the great writer Khushwant Singh. I read the struggles and sadness of the people from both sides of the border in the partition that happened in 1947. I am poet, and I only believe in love and peace. We the homo sapiens are capable of great things, but let us not get narrow minded and hate each other. Our world needs more loving hearts.”

“We should always be practicing humility and remaining in a humble state of mind. When you have nice things and are able to have and do the things you want, need and desire to do, consider it a blessing. Be grateful. Pray often and give thanks. Because what purpose does it serve to spitefully brag directly to a poor man about the luxuries that you have when we all know that it can be taken away at the blink of an eye. Furthermore, it is not show of humanity when you approach the poor to show and tell them of all the riches you have that they do not have, if you are not feeding them. A Word.”

“Mensen zijn betekenisdieren. Ze kropen bij elkaar, begonnen op den duur met elkaar te praten, noodzakelijkerwijs, gaven de dingen en elkaar een naam en sindsdien is er betekenis, sinds het mogelijk was tegen de een Piet en tegen de ander Jan te zeggen. Er is helemaal geen waarheid van Piet en Jan, maar met de namen kwam wel het verlangen naar de onderscheiding, een verlangen naar de waarheid, dat het werkelijk iets zou betekenen, Jan te zijn of Piet. Nu zijn we al lang geen dieren meer en blijven zoeken naar betekenis en zin. Het is een vloek en tegelijk is het mooi, van nutteloosheid.”
