“Give up salt, give up sugar, give up spices, give up vegetables, give up chutnies, give up tamarind. Serve Bhangis, serve rogues, serve inferiors, remove faecal matter. Do not revenge, resist not evil, return good for evil, bear insult and injury. Forget like a child any injury done by somebody immediately. Never keep it in the heart. It kindles hatred.” GivingHeartChildrenMatterDoneEvilForgetReturnBearsGiving UpHatredRevengeInsultInjuryRemoveVegetablesSugarSaltInferiorsSpicesKindlesRogues Author:Sivananda
“Manet wanted one day to paint my wife and children. Renoir was there. He took a canvas and began painting them, too.

“In early childhood, children develop a set of symbols that 'stand for' things they see in the world around them... Children are happy with symbolic drawing until about the age of eight or nine... when children develop a passion for realism. Our schools do not provide drawing instruction. Children try on their own to discover the secrets of realistic drawing, but nearly always fail and, sadly, give up on trying.” WorldGivingTryingChildrenAgeSchoolPassionSecretFailingChildhoodGiving UpEightDrawingNineSymbolsRealisticInstructionRealismSymbolicEarly Childhood Author:Betty Edwards
