Jaggi Vasudev
If you don't have the necessary inner balance, leadership can demolish you. Today, if you are a CEO by the time you are 35, you must have ulcers. By 45, you must have diabetes. By 55, you must have had a bypass. People say they have had three bypasses, as if it is a qualification.
Essentially, all life on the planet is coming from the earth. Whether it is a human being or an earthworm, it is the same soil.

A guru is like a live road map. If you want to walk uncharted terrain, I think it is sensible to walk with a road map.
Communism is a way of thinking. Socialism is wimpy communism. When you don't have the courage to become a communist, you become a socialist.
Trees are our closest relatives. What trees exhale, we inhale; what we exhale, they inhale. They are half our respiratory system.
Even if the flower is no more, still, the fragrance can be.
I hear Shakespeare, sometimes, the way other people might hear God or Marx or something. But he's so different from that.
Howard Jacobson
Shakespeare's always been sitting on my back, since I began reading. And, certainly, as a writer, he's who I hear all the time. And he's almost indistinguishable now from the English language. I have no sense of what Shakespeare is like. I have no sense of the personality that is Shakespeare. I think, alone among writers, I don't know who he is.
The magic word 'Shakespeare' always freezes you in your chair.
That's the great test: if you're going to be a great comic writer, not a humorist, you've got to take it into the throat of grief. Can you make laughter and seriousness so close that they are the same thing?
