It is essential to practice spiritual disciplines along with academic studies.

You must pass your days in song. Let your whole life be a song.

Unity of minds, natural love and co-operation, are the qualities we have to develop today. Education is not for securing university degrees.

Wisdom flashes like lightening amidst the clouds of the inner sky; one has to foster the flash, and preserve the light. That is the true sign of the ‘educated’ person.

Education today is a process of filling the mind with the contents of books, emptying the contents in the examination hall and returning empty-headed.

This world crisis came about without women having anything to do with it. If the women of the world had not been excluded from world affairs, things today might have been different.

I never set out to write a book to change women’s lives, to change history. It’s like, ‘Who, me?’ Yes, me. I did it. And I’m not that different from other women. Maybe my power and glory was that I could speak my truth as a woman and it was the truth of every woman.

That’s what Tupac and I got from my dad – the rebellion and the need to fight back and be recognized for being different.
