Sanskrit Sayings:
Everyday the sun travels to the end of endless sky in a single wheeled chariot having seven horses controlled by serpents on an unsupported road with a charioteer having disabled foot. The actions of great people are accomplished by their inner strength, not by the means of doing it.
 रथस्यैकं चक्रं भुजगयमिताः सप्ततुरगाः


निरालंबो मार्गश्चरणविकलो सारथिरपि।


रविर्यात्यंतं प्रतिदिनमपारस्य नभसः


क्रियासिद्धिः सत्त्वे भवति महतां नोपकरणे॥
 Even with a crore gold coins, you cannot buy even a minute of your life. Should, therefore, even a moment be wasted, can there be a greater calamity?
 आयुषः क्षण एकोऽपि |
न लभ्यः स्वर्णकोटिभिः |
स चेत् निरर्थकं नीतः |
का नु हानिस् ततॊऽधिका ||


“the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.”- Jack Kerouac
