Life is a public performance on the violin, in which you must learn the instrument as you go along.
E. M. ForsterAll a child's life depends on the ideal it has of its parents. Destroy that and everything goes โ morals, behaviour, everything. Absolute trust in some one else is the essence of education.
E. M. ForsterHe stretched out his hands as he sang, sadly, because all beauty is sadโฆThe poem had done no โgoodโ to anyone, but it was a passing reminder, a breath from the divine lips of beauty, a nightingale between two worlds of dust. Less explicit than the call to Krishna, it voiced our loneliness nevertheless, our isolation, our need for the Friend who never comes yet is not entirely disproved.
E. M. Forster
