We cannot trample upon the humanity of others without devaluing our own. The Igbo, always practical, put it concretely in their proverb Onye ji onye n'ani ji onwe ya: "He who will hold another down in the mud must stay in the mud to keep him down.
Chinua Achebe (The Education of a British-Protected Child: Essays)
Am sa viermuiesc singur, am sa umblu razna prin lume, ca un sicriu, purtînd în mine imaginea ei aproape lesinata pe care o iubesc neînchipuit de mult, am sa-i vorbesc, în gînd, prin paduri si prin gari, am sa-i fac patul în mine, s-o culc, în fiecare seara, s-o învelesc în cîrpe, voi stiti foarte bine cîte cârpe poarta în sine fiecare dintre noi, si ea n-o sa-mi raspunda niciodata pentru ca n-o sa ma auda cînd o sa-i spun nani-nani, pentru ca acolo, în mine, în cîrpele din ea, are sa-l înveleasca pe iubitul ei care o va purta învelita în cîrpele din el si o va legana si îi va spune nani-nani si asa mai departe;
Gellu Naum (Zenobia)
Nani’s allegiance is to her anger and anger runs deeper than blood and skin. It’s set in bone and bone, once broken, never heals the same.
Holly Bodger (5 to 1)
Watu hawaheshimu wewe ni nani au unatoka wapi. Wanaheshimu nguvu ya matendo yako.
Enock Maregesi (Kolonia Santita)
But when it finally did happen, the alien invasion turned out to be much more like Mr. Looney of the Tunes than Mr. Ridley of the Scott. Point to Nani.
Catherynne M. Valente (Space Opera (Space Opera, #1))
To my countrymen who gave unto themselves the constitution but not the ability to keep it,who inherited resplendent heritage but not the wisdom to cherish it,who suffer and endure in pain without the perception of their potential.
Nani Palkhivala (We, The People: India, the largest Democracy)
You must immerse yourself in an unfamiliar world in order to truly understand your own.

Hadithi ya maisha yangu ni yangu. Wewe ni nani kusema hadithi yangu si ya kweli?
Enock Maregesi
You may not believe in a fate which overtakes men however they act; but you have to believe in a fate which overtakes men unless they act.
Nani Palkhivala (Our Constitution Defaced and Defiled)
With a lurch Rishi realized his brain was also diverting blood flow to other parts of his body. He immediately began to think of Nani, his grandmother with the hairy mole on her neck jowls. Yep. That did it. Whew. Crisis averted.
Sandhya Menon (When Dimple Met Rishi (Dimple and Rishi, #1))
She hides her tears from the world. "It will only make you weaker" she tells herself. That's what she has been holding onto. Thats what was keeping her upright. Until she snapped.

We have not inherited this earth from our forefathers; we have borrowed it from our children’.
Nani Palkhivala (100 Witty Quotes by Nani Palkhivala (Rupa Quick Reads))
Something terrible was going on in this mall. Shay just had to keep Preeti and Nani safe. Hide them until this—whatever it was—was over. If she could do that, everything would be fine.
Dayna Lorentz (No Safety in Numbers (No Safety in Numbers, #1))
Education is at the heart of the matter. Literacy is not enough. It is good to have a population which is able to read; but infinitely better to have people able to distinguish what is worth reading.
Nani Palkhivala (100 Witty Quotes by Nani Palkhivala (Rupa Quick Reads))
I tried to be comfortable in the rough, cold sand, pressed up against Tutu Nani's leg. I could feel some of the fear leaving her as I lay there, so I didn't try to change position. Having a dog nearby always makes things better.
W. Bruce Cameron (Zeus: Water Rescue (Dogs With a Purpose))
Depression. some traumatic event has occured in your life, causing you to go through Immense, Long term, Unbearable agony, sadness, and Pain.

Mi domando: ma i genitori dei sette nani erano ubriachi quando hanno scelto quei nomi lì ai loro figli?
Fabio Fazio (I grandi perché della vita)
They are an allegory of what happens in real life. Girls get beaten up and die. It's a warning, to live chastely. That if you're a good girl, you get to live" - Nani
Laura Pohl (The Grimrose Girls (Grimrose Girls, #1))
Life has taught me that when you have achieved everything that you have aimed for in life, you still feel something missing. To get what one wishes and to enjoy it too is seldom possible.
Nani Palkhivala (100 Witty Quotes by Nani Palkhivala (Rupa Quick Reads))
The thing that I'm afraid the most is when I fall in love is... I will hate him someday." "Kenapa? Kenapa nak kena benci pulak bila dah cinta?" "I don't know. It's just me.Hati saya senang berubah-ubah. Boleh jadi saya suka orang tu bagai nak mati and then, bila dah rapat, saya jadi bosan. Tak suka.
Illa Shanahila (Memori Tri+Nani)
Il bene e il male sono rimasti immutati da sempre, e il loro significato è il medesimo per gli Elfi, per i Nani e per gli Uomini. Tocca a ognuno di noi discernerli, tanto nel Bosco d’Oro quanto nella propria dimora”.
J.R.R. Tolkien (Il signore degli anelli)
Ukitaka watu wakuheshimu usitumie mabavu. Tumia hekima. Maana, watu hawaheshimu wewe ni nani au unatoka wapi, wanaheshimu nguvu ya matendo yako. Kama una tatizo na mtu usichukue uamuzi wa haraka. Ongea na watu kupata hekima.
Enock Maregesi
And after everything she was put through. Every storm no one sheltered her from. Every battle field no one fought by her side. Every scar that marked her body. She still made herself stronger. She is one with her storm. She is more than 100 men on that battle field. She heals her own scar's. She is underestimated.
~ Nani ViBe FoX
My mother and I have lost the ability to talk. It’s as if the vacuum of Nani’s absence sucks up every word we might speak. Sometimes, I catch her staring at me. She always smiles and turns away, goes back to whatever she’s doing. My brain forms “I tried to save her,” but it gets lost on the way to my lips, so I say nothing at all.
Dayna Lorentz (No Dawn without Darkness (No Safety In Numbers, #3))
Sawa. Кто Вы, где Вы от, и почему Вы в Москве?
Enock Maregesi (Kolonia Santita)
I feel like an empty bottle with no purpose but to sit there....and wait for the wind to blow me in the right direction.

Dear Mama, I hope this letter finds you well. It contains all my love and affection. (It also contains all my questions about how you could ever have loved a man like Professor Miller.) You asked about where I live. I cannot believe I haven’t mentioned it, but I suppose I’m so used to it now I don’t think of it. The dorms are small and plain, but as a student I don’t need much more. (I cannot afford the dorms. I do not live in them.) The food is dreadful, all heavy meat and sauce. I miss fruit! (I am always hungry; a supper with a strange man was the fullest my stomach has been since I got here.) As I have mentioned in every letter, my professors are all interesting and I take copious notes during lectures. (If you do not bring up my father, I am certainly not going to offer you information on that louse of a man.) The course work is challenging but I am excelling. (I have to be perfect so they can find no excuse to dock my grades.) I have delivered Aunt Nani’s package to Jacabo. He was so happy to receive it, and I take tea with him once a week. It is a great comfort to speak Melenese with someone. (I live in the hotel where Jacabo works. He saved me when I realized I could not afford room and board at the school. I work long, hard hours in the evenings to earn a tiny hole of a servant’s room and whatever scraps of food are left over.) Please give everyone my love and tell them how much I am learning to bring back to the island as a teacher. (I will not fail, and I will use everything I learn here to make Melei better.) Your affectionate daughter, Jessamin

Lutje Të lutem, o perëndi, për një simfoni me tinguj t'argjantë e akorde t'artë. Të lutem, o perëndi, për një simfoni - plot dashuni të nxehtë si tu vasha gjitë kur vlojnë ndijesitë.

We touch the grass,” Nani had said to me when I was a boy, as she’d drug her fingers through the feathered heads of the blooming stalks, “and the grass remembers. If we cut the grass, it will forget who we are and we never want the island to forget.” She’d turned to me then and patted the top of my head. “The same is said for our hair. It is a physical manifestation of our memories and our experiences. We touch our hair with our fingers and we will remember who we are.
Nikki St. Crowe (The Dark One (Vicious Lost Boys, #2))
A survey came to the conclusion that even among the educated classes 97 percent of the people could not think for themselves. They derived their opinions and beliefs from what they heard on the radio or television or read in the newspapers.
Nani Palkhivala (We, the Nation: the Lost Decades)
Usiwe na wasiwasi, Peter. Hizo ni hisia zangu tu. Huwezi kuwa mpelelezi. Lakini, kusema ule ukweli, ningependa sana kuonana na John Murphy. Kuna kazi binafsi ningependa kumpa. Wewe unatoka Afrika, hujawahi kumwona?” Debbie alizidi kumshtua Murphy. “Nani?” Murphy aliuliza huku akitabasamu. “John Murphy wa Afrika.” “Sijawahi kumwona. Mbona unamuulizia hivyo?” Debbie alitulia. Kisha akarusha nywele ili aone vizuri. “Nampenda sana!” “Kwa nini?” “Simpendi kwa mahaba, lakini.” “Ndiyo. Kwa nini?” “OK. Nampenda kwa kipaji chake. Alichopewa na Mungu, cha ujasusi. Kusaidia watu.” “Ahaa!” Murphy alidakia, sasa akifikiri sana. “Murphy ana mashabiki wengi hapa Meksiko bila yeye mwenyewe kujua, kwa sababu ya kupambana na wahalifu wa madawa ya kulevya – hasa wa huku Latino. Tatizo lake haonekani. Wengi hudhani ni hadithi tu, kwamba hakuna mtu kama huyo hapa duniani.” “Hapana! Murphy yupo! Ni mfanyabiashara maarufu huko Tanzania. Lakini ndiyo hivyo kama unavyosema ... Haonekani!
Enock Maregesi (Kolonia Santita)
Nilijifunza toka awali umuhimu wa kushindwa katika maisha ijapokuwa nilijitahidi sana, na nilipoendelea kushindwa niliweka nadhiri ya kufanya kitu kimoja kilicholeta maana zaidi katika maisha yangu nacho ni uandishi wa vitabu. Uandishi wa vitabu ndicho kitu pekee nilichokiweza zaidi kuliko vingine vyote na kuanzia hapo Mungu aliniweka huru. Nilijua mimi ni nani. Nilijua kwa nini nilizaliwa. Nilijifunza falsafa ya kuacha dunia katika hali nzuri kuliko nilivyoikuta – kwa sababu hata mimi nilikuwepo – na falsafa ya kushindwa si hiari. Maarifa hayo yakafanya niwe na heshima na upendo kwa watu wote.
Enock Maregesi
Our Constitution, which enjoins the unity and integrity of India, gave us a flying start; and equipped us adequately to meet the challenges of the future. Unfortunately, over the years, we dissipated every advantage we started with, like a compulsive gambler bent upon squandering an invaluable legacy.
Jignesh R. Shah (The Wit and Wisom of Nani A. Palkhivala)
Poor creatures who came out of my belly, all alone now on the other side of the world. I placed the doll on my knees as if for company. Why had I taken her. She guarded the love of Nina and Elena, their bond, their reciprocal passion. She was the shining testimony of perfect motherhood. I brought her to my breast. How many damaged, lost things did I have behind me, and yet present, now, in a whirl of images. I understood clearly that I didn’t want to give Nani back, even though I felt remorse, fear in keeping her with me. I kissed her face, her mouth, I hugged her as I had seen Elena do. She emitted a gurgle that seemed to me a hostile remark and, with it, a jet of brown saliva that dirtied my lips and my shirt.
Elena Ferrante (The Lost Daughter)
Dopo tutti quegli anni nei sobborghi trovo che la città mi sia consona, e mi sono già affezionato al mio quartiere, con il suo mutevole calderone di bianchi e mori e neri, il suo coro a più strati di accenti esotici, i suoi bambini e i suoi alberi, le sue famiglie piccolo-borghesi che faticano, le coppie lesbiche, i negozi di alimentari coreani, il santone indiano barbuto in tunica bianca che si inchina ogni volta che ci incontriamo per la strada, i nani e gli storpi, i vecchi pensionati che arrancano a passettini sul marciapiede, le campane delle chiese e i diecimila cani, la popolazione sotterranea di rovistarifiuti senzacasa solitari che spingono i carrelli del supermercato lungo i viali e cercano bottiglie nella spazzatura.
Paul Auster (The Brooklyn Follies)
Murphy. Sina mbinu zozote za kujikinga kama unavyojua; mbali na mafunzo ya FBI. Baada ya kumrusha nyoka wa Lisa nywele zilinisisimka. Wazo la kukimbia likaja ghafla. Kukimbia hata hivyo nikashindwa kwa kuhofu huenda wangeniona. Hivyo, nikarudi nyuma ya nyumba na kupanda mti na kujificha huko. Bunduki zilipolia, nilijua wamekuua. Ila kitu kimoja kikanishangaza: mashambulizi hayakuonekana kukoma. Kitu hicho kikanipa nguvu kwamba huenda hujafa na ulikuwa ukipambana nao. Kimya kilipotokea nilijua umewashinda nguvu, kitu ambacho kumbe kilikuwa kweli. Nilipokutafuta baadaye lakini bila kukuona kutokana na kukurukakara za maadui niliamua kwenda katika gari ili nije na gari kama mgeni, nikitegemea waniruhusu kuingia ili nipate hakika kama wamekuua au bado uko hai. Wasingenifanya chochote. Kimaajabu, niliposhuka katika mti ili nikimbie katika gari, niliona gari ikija kwa kasi. Kuangalia vizuri nikakuta ni Ferrari, halafu nikashangaa nani anaendesha gari ya Lisa!” Murphy alitabasamu tena na kuendelea kusikiliza. “Sijui moyo wangu ulikuwaje. Sikuogopa tena! Badala yake nilikaza mwendo na kuendelea kuifuata huku nikipata wazo hapohapo kwamba mtu aliyekuwemo akiendesha hakuwa adui. Adui angeingia katika gari na kunisubiri aniteke nyara.” Debbie alitulia. “Ulihisi ni mimi?” Murphy aliuliza. “Nilihisi ni mtu tu mwema amekuja kunisaidia ... au mwizi wa gari. Hata hivyo, baadaye nilijua ni wewe na furaha yangu yote ilirudi.
Enock Maregesi (Kolonia Santita)
Muda haututoshi. Tunajua mizigo hiyo ni ya nani. Tunajua nani aliua maafisa wetu wa polisi na maafisa wa polisi wa Meksiko na Marekani na wapita njia na kwa nini alifanya hivyo. Hatujui kwa hakika imefichwa wapi. Kuwakamata wahusika ni kazi nzito, ndugu wajumbe. Inahitaji ujasiri wa kupindukia … na kujitoa mhanga. Kuzuia mizigo ya CS-14, na kumkamata kiongozi wake, lazima tupigane kufa na kupona. Kwa siku kumi shehena zikamatwe na kuharibiwa, na viongozi wa Santita (wote) wakamatwe na kuwekwa chini ya sheria.

Nyota ni kipaji, kipawa, takdiri, karama, au uweza; ni kiashiria cha rohoni kinachoonyesha mtu atakuwa nani baadaye, mafanikio ya mtu, au takdiri ya maisha ya mwanadamu. Unabii na nyota ya ufalme ni kibali cha Mungu katika maisha ya mtu. Kupata kibali hicho, tembea na watu sahihi katika maisha yako (tembea na watu ambao Mungu amekuchagulia kushika funguo za takdiri ya maisha yako). Tamka na kukiri kibali cha Mungu katika maisha yako yote. Panda mbegu za kibali cha Mungu katika udongo wa maisha yako. Jifunze kutenda mema bila malipo, kwani wema ni mbegu ya kibali cha Mungu. Jali mambo ya ufalme wa Mungu.

I want to be in the water with you again, nani girl." Her knees went weak and trembles raced down her spine. Beautiful girl had been a special nickname only he used.
Robin Bielman (Take a Risk Bundle)
Maadui ni wazuri kuliko marafiki na mashabiki ni wazuri kuliko maadui. Maadui wanakusaidia kujua wewe ni nani na kwa nini uko hapa. Ukishajua wewe ni nani na kwa nini uko hapa, hakuna mtu atakayekuzuia kufanya chochote unachokiamini zaidi na kukifanya. Chochote unachokiamini zaidi na kukifanya ndicho Mungu alichokupangia kufanya hapa duniani, na kwa sababu hiyo utapata maadui. Ili utoke lazima uwe na mashabiki, marafiki na maadui.

Nani could always be counted on to act as a coconspirator.
Dayna Lorentz (No Safety in Numbers (No Safety in Numbers, #1))
Ukiwa na mafanikio ya Shetani hayo si mafanikio ya kweli. Ukiwa na mafanikio ya Mungu hayo ndiyo mafanikio ya kweli. Mafanikio ya kweli hayatokani na NINI unacho. Mafanikio ya kweli yanatokana na NANI unaye. Yesu Kristo alikuwa maskini, hakuwa na kitu; lakini alikuwa tajiri, alikuwa na Mungu ndani ya moyo wake.

Il nostro inseguimento sarà narrato come un’impresa stupefacente dalle Tre Stirpi: Elfi, Nani e Uomini. Avanti i Tre Cacciatori!”.
J.R.R. Tolkien (Il signore degli anelli)
Today, the world is gripped by a sickness—the mental sickness of the young as well as the old. Discotheques would not flourish, as they do, if young minds had something better to learn and something to understand. This mental sickness, the feeling of insecurity, of unhappiness amidst plenty, is the disease of affluence, which has afflicted men down the ages in all civilizations.
Jignesh R. Shah (The Wit and Wisom of Nani A. Palkhivala)
È divenuto così strano il mondo! Elfi e Nani camminano insieme sulle nostre praterie, in pieno giorno; c’è gente che parla con la Dama della Foresta, eppur rimane in vita; e ritorna a combattere finanche la Spada che fu Rotta nei tempi remoti, prima che i padri dei nostri padri giungessero nel Mark! Come può un uomo in tempi come questi decidere quel che deve fare?”.

Kuna nguzo saba ambazo hazina budi kuzingatiwa kama unataka kuheshimiwa na kuwaheshimu wengine. Kwanza kabisa jitambue: wewe ni nani na unafanya nini hapa duniani. Halafu, kabla ya kusema jambo lolote kwa mtu yoyote fikiria kwanza maana au madhara ya hilo unalotaka kulisema. Kisha jifunze tamaduni mbalimbali na watendee wengine kama vile unavyotaka kutendewa au kama vile wanavyotaka kutendewa. Jifunze kusamehe na kusuluhisha migogoro katika jamii unamoishi huku ukidumisha heshima na utu kwa binadamu wenzako. Jijengee imani kwa watu, punguza upendeleo, fanya kazi kama timu kwani hakuna ‘mimi’ katika umoja ila kuna ‘sisi’, na jitahidi kwa kadiri ya uwezo wako WOTE kwa manufaa ya wote. Kuwa kiongozi katika kila jambo unalofanya na katika kila kitu unachofanya. Jitahidi kufanya jambo au kitu kwa usahihi kwa kadiri utakavyoweza.

Israeli ilifikia kikomo cha kipindi chake kikubwa cha mafanikio tangu enzi za Sulemani. Taifa lilikuwa tajiri. Lilikuwa na nguvu. Lilikuwa na silaha nyingi na nzuri zaidi. Lilikuwa taifa lililojidai kwa uwezo wake mkubwa wa nguvu za kijeshi, hekima, ujasiri, utajiri, na faida za kimkakati. Nani angeweza kushindana na Israeli? Lakini Mungu hunguruma onyo kwamba uwezo wote mkubwa wa asili wa taifa, ujuzi waliojipatia, na sifa bora zaidi havikuweza kulisaidia taifa la Israeli. Watu huona nguvu ya taifa katika utajiri wake, idadi yake ya watu, silaha za kijeshi, teknolojia, na maarifa. Lakini Mungu huangalia haki.

Pretty thing are you are being pretty with me.
Nani Bharat
La luna saliva davanti a lui, e le voci della sera avvertivano l'uomo che la sua giornata era finita. Era il grido cadenzato del cuculo, il zirlio dei grilli precoci, qualche gemito d'uccello; era il sospiro delle canne e la voce sempre piu' chiara del fiume: ma era tutto un soffio, un ansito misterioso che pareva uscire dalla terra stessa: si, la giornata dell'uomo lavoratore era finita, ma cominciava la vita fantastica dei folletti, delle fate, degli spiriti erranti. I fantasmi degli antichi Baroni scendevano dalle rovine del castello sopra il paese di Galte, su, all'orizzonte a sinistra di Efix, e percorrevano le sponde del fiume alla caccia dei cinghiali e delle volpi: le loro armi scintillavano in mezzo ai bassi ontani della riva, e l'abbaiar fioco dei canti in lontananza indicava il loro passaggio. Efix sentiva il rumore che le panas (donne morte di parto) facevano nel lavar i loro panni giu' al fiume, battendoli con uno stinco di morto, e credeva di intraveder l'ammattadore, folletto con sette berretti entro i quali conserva un tesoro, balzar di qua e di la' sotto il bosco di mandorli, inseguito dai vampiri con la coda d'acciaio. Era il suo passaggio che destava lo scintillio dei rami e delle pietre sotto la luna: e agli spiriti maligni si univano quelli dei bambini non battezzati, spiriti bianchi che volavano per aria tramutandosi nelle nuvolette argentee dietro la luna: e i nani e le janas, piccole fate che durante la giornata stanno nelle loro case di roccia a tesser stoffe d'oro in telai d'oro, ballavano all'ombra delle grandi macchie di filirea, mentre i giganti s'affacciavano fra le roccie dei monti battuti dalla luna, tenendo per la briglia gli enormi cavalli verdi che essi soltanto sanno montare, spiando se laggiu' fra le distese d'euforbia malefica si nascondeva qualche drago o se il leggendario serpente cananea, vivente fin dai tempi di Cristo, strisciava sulle sabbie intorno alla palude. Specialmente nelle notti di luna tutto questo popolo misterioso anima le colline e le valli: l'uomo non ha diritto a turbarlo con la sua presenza, come gli spiriti han rispettato lui durante il corso del sole; e' dunque tempo di ritirarsi e chiuder gli occhi sotto la protezione degli angeli custodi.

Lascia che ti dia qualche consiglio, bastardo" riprese Tyrion Lannister. "Mai, mai dimenticare chi sei, perché di certo il mondo non lo dimenticherà. Trasforma chi sei nella tua forza, così non potrà mai essere la tua debolezza.

Nani has always acted like the godfather of their family, sitting at the head of the table since Nana died, leaving her to lead the family alone.
Kasim Ali (Good Intentions)
Este dureroasa trecerea de la copilarie la adolescenta. cand iluziile se fac tandari si visele se sparg, ciocnindu-se de realitate. Regret candoarea confortabila, lumea sigura in care necazurile isi iau zborul cand faci nani. Regret viata in care nu stiam , bula aceea plina de blandete ai caror paznici erau tata si mama. Inaintez spre maturitate lasand in urma pietricele de inocenta. Nu vreau sa le pierd pe toate. Nu mai vreau sa cresc.

SYMBOLUM Del cantero las andanzas a la vida se asemejan, y su esfuerzo es comparable a los afanes del hombre sobre la faz de la tierra. El porvenir encubre dolores y alegrías. Paso a paso, marchamos hacia delante siempre, sin que el temor nos rinda. Allá, a lo lejos, muéstrese imponente una cúpula, sobre la cual, arriba reposan las estrellas; y abajo, en paz, las tumbas. Miradla atentos; veréis cómo erráticos temblores y hondos, graves sentimientos, en el pecho de los héroes se despiertan al momento. Mas no haya temor; que arriba están llamándoos las voces de los genios y maestros: “No perdáis tiempo, mortales, servid al bien con denuedo”. Aquí, en silencio perenne, téjense bellas coronas, que habrán de ceñir las sienes de quien por el bien labora. ¡Ánimo, pues, y a la obra!
Giovanni Nani (Mi Caja de Herramientas: Cómo utilizar la filosofía de la masonería en la vida diaria (Spanish Edition))

Simran hears Nani turning down the volume of a Fair and Lovely commercial, the kind that used to convince she and her friends that they could be hot if their complexions were ten shades lighter. She wonders how much money and time Indian women have spent in pursuit of fairness.

To my countrymen Who gave unto themselves the constitution but not the ability to keep Who inherited resplendent heritage but not the wisdom to cherish it who suffer and endure in patience without the perception of their potential

We keep tackling fifty year problems with five year plans, staffed by two year officials, working with one year appropriations- fondly hoping that somehow the laws of economics will be suspended because we are Indians
Nani Palkhivala (We, The People: India, the largest Democracy)
The greatest task before India today is to acquire a keener sense of national identity, to gain the wisdom to cherish its priceless heritage, and to create a cohesive society with the cement of Indian Culture. We shall then celebrate the 15th day of August not as the Day of Independence but as the Day of Interdependence - the dependence of the States upon one another, the dependence of our numerous communities upon one another, the dependence of the many castes and clans upon one another- in the sure knowledge that we are one nation.

Ero quasi certo che il Jolly si fosse tuffato nel grande solitario dopo essere fuggito dal piccolo solitario dell'isola misteriosa. E qui, come là, aveva un compito importante da assolvere: a regolari intervalli di tempo, doveva ricordare ai nani, grandi e piccoli, che erano creature straordinarie e, pur essendo piene di vita, conoscevano troppo poco se stesse.

asked my mother if her mother, my Nani, had given her any advice when she got married. She said, ‘ Ek hee cheez boli, kabhi jawab nahin dena, kisi ko bhi . She said only one thing, never answer back, to anyone. Jawab nahin dena

Hapo basi - kijikeki. Kwa nini wewe upate kidogo? Sagamoyo ni kwenu, sherehe ni zenu, ufanisi ni wenu na keki kubwa ni ya kina nani? Uhalisia wa mambo umekusibu; fungua macho uone. Keki ya uhuru imeliwa kwingine, mwaletewa masazo.

Tujikumbushe *Wazee wanasema ni vizuri tucheke kidogo. Ng'ombe akiwa na birthday naomba kondoo wote mlete maua. Simba akikukimbiza ukikutana na pundamlia(zebra) ukirukia mgongoni simba atasimama kama gari?Kama hujawahi kuonja ladha ya sabuni muoshe mbwa. Najiwazia tuu hapa hata sina point, ukimpa fundi cherehani ashone dera la nyangumi!! Hivi kati ya hawa nani anachukia mwanga? Mwizi, kahaba na popo? Ee Mungu naomba unipe bunduki lakini nisiitumie*Wewe endelea kujifanya serious udhani kuna mtu atakusifia una hekima! Cheka ndugu yangu

Classic immigrant mentality: take pride in putting up with difficulty. “You know Nani passed her stubborn streak to both of us,” she continues. “But even with that, when I was growing up, Nani told me to do anything I had to in order to be accepted.

Kama kuna swali maarufu kuliko yote katika kitabu cha 'Kolonia Santita' ni "Кто Вы, где Вы от, и почему Вы в Москве?" lililoulizwa na товарищи (Komredi) Anatoly-Chaika, baada ya kumfikisha Murphy katika 'dacha' ya Kolonia Santita ya Yugo Zapadnaya. Murphy hakumwelewa Chaika. Lakini mwenzake na Chaika (Vladimir) alipouliza kwa tafsiri, "Wewe ni nani, unatoka wapi, na unafanya nini Moscow?" Murphy alimwelewa na kucheka akiwa amenuna. Bila swali hilo asingeokoka.

Do you know what probability means?” “Sure,” I said, “it’s division.” “That’s right,” Pu Nani said, “You need to figure out the common denominator. Just don’t go and end up being that numerator and you’ll be alright.” Our safety instruction ended there.

जॉन केनेथ गालब्रेथ यांनी म्हटले आहे की‚ भारताच्या गरिबीतही एक प्रकारची श्रीमंती आहे. भारतात केवळ पैशावरून एखाद्याच्या संपत्तीचे मोजमाप केले जात नाही. भारताचे अंत:करण सुदृढ असून मानवी साधनक्षमता उदंड आहे. भारतीय व्यक्तीचे आंतरिक सामर्थ्य आणि सहनशीलतेची ताकद पाहून पाश्चात्त्य लोक थक्क होऊन जातात. आमच्या देशातील कोट्यवधी लोकांचे जीवनमान अत्यंत नित्कृष्ट असले‚ तरीही त्यांच्या जीवनात विशिष्ट गुणवत्तेचा आढळ होतो. अत्यंत बिकट परिस्थितीही भारतीय लोक आपल्या सहनशक्तीच्या बळावर सोसू शकतात. इतर देशांमध्ये तसे घडले‚ तर रक्तपात आणि राज्यक्रांती यांचा उद्भव होतो. आपापसातील भांडणे आणि मतभिन्नता यांच्यावर आमच्या प्राचीन संस्कृतीने सतत मात केली आहे आणि भारतीय संस्कृतीची ही अद्भुत क्षमता पुढेही अशीच टिकून राहील‚ यात शंका नाही. एका बाबतीत भारताला

This church is a joke! It’s nothing but a ‘seeker’ church,” he said twenty minutes into the service.

I later found out that “seeker” is a term used by Christians to describe non-Christians that haven’t found Christ yet but are seeking Him.

स्वातंत्र्यप्राप्तीपासून अधिकारावर आलेल्या सर्व सरकारांनी राष्ट्रावर विवेकशून्य समाजवाद लादला आणि त्यामुळे लोकांच्या उद्यमशीलतेला आणि उपक्रमशीलतेला वावच उरला नाही. वास्तविक सामाजिक न्याय हाच समाजवादाचा खरा आशय. त्याऐवजी सरकारी नियंत्रण आणि सरकारी मालकी म्हणजेच समाजवाद‚ असे हे राज्यकर्ते धरून चालले. समाजवादाच्या या वरपांगी कल्पनेलाच खरा समाजवाद मानण्याची राज्यकर्त्यांकडून चूक घडल्यामुळे‚ सामाजिक न्यायाची उपेक्षाच झाली. धर्म म्हणजे कर्मकांड
