I have created this page to put together all the quotes I have tweeted. On Twitter, I have tweeted several authors like Bertrand Russel, William Blake, Plato, Aristotle, Friedrich Nietzche, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Swami Vivekananda, Rabindranath Tagore and others. This page, however, has only those quotes and short thoughts – with or without picture arrangements – I have authored. Hope, you enjoy and find some inspiration and benefit here as well. While on Twitter these are in chronological order, it might not be the case here.

By a mere quill dipped in dark ink, #freedom was found by the persistent among men.

The memory of the warm afternoon lingered,
The sun had traveled its journey dutifully,
The moon was standing afar to bid it farewell,
Men and women stood admiring the miracle in the sky,
Stars with twinkling dreams.#ThinkBIGSundayWithMarsha 📚 pic.twitter.com/Ey78t9kALQ

The intensity with which certain individuals dream is their determined defiance of the unpleasant reality.

Looking backward, no river had a flawless journey. It kept overcoming every obstacle to become the mighty river it is today.

Nature has offered a book. We could keep turning its pages and never come to its end. We could spend years on a page, and still, have more to understand.
What we mustn't do is, tear the pages out of the book of nature, for our lack of appreciation. pic.twitter.com/VKwl5zq6Ov

To be found in the rays of the sun,
Is the overcoming of hesitations,
The earth only need receive silently,
For life and beauty to flourish,
To find sustaining warmth invitingly,
For the vast waters to shimmer,
To reflect gratitude smilingly. pic.twitter.com/DOUdTzR9A2

A straight path within,
A short walk away,
Leads unfailingly to a sunrise,
For all the world changes,
A light keeps burning,
A kind warmth keeps giving,
Grateful let us so be,
For each life that remembers living. pic.twitter.com/HpCCew21xo

A screen is drawn
The world outside
A mere hazy outline
Of its beauty, of its pains
Its losses, its transient gains
Its lights, its shadows…
A screen is drawn
To the world outside
Arise, O peaceful dawn! pic.twitter.com/mi9pdp5ylE

To listen is to go on a quiet journey. It is to hold the hand, or to walk beside someone, but never ahead of the one speaking.
The only time one walks ahead is to clear the way to continue walking… to listen further.#ThinkBIGSundayWithMarsha #listening pic.twitter.com/5rhU0rZYk9

I have learnt more about life just by observing and listening to people, than from anything else.
I have appreciated how every chosen word – even silence – is a window into the person's heart.
It has opened the secrets of #hope.#ThinkBIGSundayWithMarsha pic.twitter.com/59tYiYDuYQ

Pulled by the open land,
Clouds yielding to the calls,
Kiss those valley mountains,
Where a carpet is woven,
On the loom of a tender mother,
To all her children generously given. pic.twitter.com/SgTXBMPm7o

A field of flowers satisfies. A breeze carries the fragrance for miles. Yet, it is not the way as one finds #satisfaction in looking at one flower.

Some people share a thought. You can see when that happens.
Some, though, share of themselves. When you see it, it's different. Can you sense the difference? And if yes, do you #appreciate it when it happens? pic.twitter.com/2Efwoskj41

To #speak tactfully is to maintain #truthfulness by limiting speech to what is relevant and possibly beneficial to the hearer at that given time.
To abandon #tact for pure #boldness is, then, to be in consideration beyond the immediate needs of the either. pic.twitter.com/huXuTymj5r

The persistent #dreams of mankind; safely isolated from daybreak.
Were the daybreak to mean a beautiful reality, mankind would fully awaken.
So we awake to the patches of beauty, and also #persist in our dreams with #minds half asleep. pic.twitter.com/qAhgxMgvSr
