Quotes

• “न रत्नमन्विष्यति मृग्यते हि तत्”
• “If a professor thinks what matters mostIs to have gained an academic postWhere he can earn a livelihood, and thenNeglect research, let controversy rest,He's but a petty tradesman at the best,Selling retail the work of other men.”
• “There in the fane a beauteous creature stands, The first best work of the Creator's hands; Whose slender limbs inadequately bear A full orbed bosom, and a weight of care; Whose teeth like pearls, whose lips like Bimbas show, And fawn-like eyes still tremble as they glow.”
• “O my good fortune, please subdue the anguish of your Soul. Nobody is destined only to happiness or to pain. The wheel of life takes one up and down by turn.”
• “God Shiva and his mountain bride,Like word and meaning unified,The world's great parents, I beseechTo join fit meaning to my speech.”
• “O thou who didst create this All,Who dost preserve it, lest it fall,Who wilt destroy it and its ways—To thee, O triune Lord, be praise.”
