  Literal Motivation Quotes #1 “What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson Agreed. Coz if what lies inside of you was lying behind and in front of you, it would be an unimaginably nasty sight to watch. Literal Motivation Quotes #2 “Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm possible'!” —Audrey Hepburn Words be like... Nothing: I am impossible. Impossible: I am possible! Possible: Why don't you guys stop being wannabes & just be yourself! You do you ok! Believe! Literal Motivation Quotes #3 “The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot.” — Michael Altshuler The better news is time-pilots don't need a licence. The best news is there are no passengers on your 'flight of imagination.'

Dr David Baker was my block tutor at Allnutt North block in the residence of St. Stephen's College, Delhi. I stayed in the block for my entire college life that fortunately or unfortunately spanned mere 3 years (2014 to 2017). The day I arrived I was given a room in the extension wing of the block - only to be told the very next day that I had to shift to F-5 (and to G-2 and F-15 in subsequent years) in the main block where the block tutor resided. It was certainly the cleanest and quietest of areas in college.  In the days that followed, I realized that the block had been maintained well because of the personal interest (read: OCD) that Dr David Baker took in the cleanliness of the premises.

  The Snail reasons and rhymes. It recites "7 Stanzas related to Life and Art: A Poem" by Vikram Grewal. Starring: 13th-14th Arrondissements of Paris.

Hard jumbled jungles grow   Faster than the flow Of blood in my binds And ideas of minds And brows of dawn open slow. Glass mingles with skies And faint-hearted sighs   Mere structures no soul Empty bellies cajole Tall twinkles blind tiny eyes.   It’s rock and stone Dead yet overgrown But with art beside   That restores pride To a higher sense unknown.   My gratitude to art For filling spaces from start For blood in stone And soul in bone That paint each waning heart.
