“Peace doesn’t require two people; it requires only one. It has to be you. The problem begins and ends there.”

Every mind deserves to be free. When the mind is free, that’s the end of suffering.

For me, everything is God. Everything and everyone. So it was just, God needs me now, now, now.

Until we know that death is equal to life, we live in fear.

Since the past is unreal and the future is unreal, all your thoughts are about nothing.

I see the goodness and beauty in everyone, and everything is a gift given for me and for all of us. If you don’t love it, question your mind until you do.

To understand our own thinking is to understand all thinking.

God is immanent in every atom, all-pervading, all-sustaining, all-evolving; He is its source and its end, its cause and its object, its centre and circumference; it is built on Him as its sure foundation, it breathes in Him as its encircling space; He is in everything and everything in Him.

We must raise resources by curbing wasteful expenditure. That’s why I resolved that the hooter culture, where VIPs are provided red-beacon cars at taxpayers’ expense, must end.

A strong beginning is a good thing only when coupled with a strong finish.

People who inspire others are those who see invisible bridges at the end of dead-end streets

At the end of the day, it is about what you are doing in the film.

I don’t write cheques anymore because I end up signing them “with love, shah rukh”

We struggled together, and sometimes, we struggled with one another. We took care of one another. In the end, we kept faith in each other.
