From the Absolute to the Relative-from the Infinite to the Finite-from the Undifferentiated to the Differentiated-from the Unconditioned to the Conditioned and again from the Relative to the Absolute. That is the whole truth of the inexistance to the existentialist, formless to the form, Creator to the Creature, one to the every being, absolute to the inabsolute and vis-á-vis, soforth every single thing is temporary, non-existed, so do I, the dream that I dreamed off is simply a 'lie and impermanent too' same as in the mortal world whatever I do experience.

Upanishad

A. J. P. Taylor

Even if I tried to be my dad, it would be a mediocre, slightly embarrassing version.

Jason Ritter

We make messes of our lives, but every now and then, we manage to do something that's exactly right. The challenge is figuring out which is which.

Jodi Picoult

He receives comfort like cold porridge.

William Shakespeare
