Live long, my friend, be wise and strong. But do not from any man his song.

When I write I just keep a waste paper basket handy in case I am experiencing a block.

The India I Love, does not make the headlines, but I find it wherever I go - in field or forest, town or village, mountain or desert - and in the hearts and minds of people who have given me love and affection for the better part of my lifetime.

There is money to be made in the market place, but under the cherry tree there is rest.

Happiness is an elusive state of mind not to be gained by clumsy pursuit.It is given to those who do not sue for it:to be unconcerned about a desired good is probably the only way to possess it.

Hapiness is as exclusive as a butterfly, and you must never pursue it. If you stay very still, it may come and settle on your hand. But only briefly. Savour those moments, for they will not come in your way very often.

I write a story in my head. I see the story like a movie.
