Quote by Shivanshu K. Srivastava

“The measure of civilisation lies not in monuments but in compassion. The greatness of a people is found in how they treat the voiceless, the weak, and the forgotten. Empathy is the foundation of true progress.”

“Now close your eyes and try to stop being angry. Try to stop raging at all those who deserve your righteous fury. Close your eyes and allow yourself, just for a moment, to simply feel the pain. To hesitate. To be confused. To feel sorrow. Remorse. You still have your whole life to spend persecuting, avenging, reckoning. But for now, just close your eyes and look inward, like a satellite hovering over a disaster zone, searching for signs of life. A lot has been taken away from you—but you’re still a human being. Wounded, bloodied, angry, hurting, frightened, drowning in sorrow, but still: human. Take a deep breath and try to remember the feeling. Because you know that a minute from now, when you open your eyes again, it’ll be gone.”

“These stars we see are billions of years old! We can live for an average of 60-70 years in this world. We look at a huge universe from a tiny window for a short time and say good-bye. Looking at the stars always reminds me of how helpless and fragile beings humans are... We are smaller than a tiny speckle in infinity, and sometimes we compare our troubles with the world... In fact, even the earth is a small dot in this universe.”
