“The next book that I would like to mention is called Man the Unknown by the Nobel laureate and doctor-turned-philosopher Alexis Carrel. In it, he talks about how humans can be healed when both the body and mind are treated together. His description of the human body—how it is an intelligent, integrated system—is explained clearly and brilliantly. I think this work should be read by everyone, in particular those who aim to study the medical sciences.”

“For in India, Bhakti or what may be called the path of devotion or hero- worship, plays a part in its politics unequalled in magnitude by the part it plays in the politics of any other country in the world. Bhakti in religion may be a road to the salvation of the soul. But in politics, Bhakti or hero-worship is a sure road to degradation and to eventual dictatorship.”

“रिश्ता-ए-दिल तेरे ज़माने में रस्म ही क्या निबाहनी होती मुस्कुराए हम उससे मिलते वक़्त रो न पड़ते अगर ख़ुशी होती (5) दिल में जिनका निशान भी न रहा क्यूँ न चेहरों पे अब वो रंग खिलें अब तो ख़ाली है रूह, जज़्बों से अब भी क्या हम तपाक से न मिलें (6) जो रानाई निगाहों के लिए सामान-ए-जलवा है लिबास-ए-मुफ़लिसी में कितनी बे-क़ीमत नज़र आती यहाँ तो जाज़बिय्यत1 भी है दौलत ही की परवरदा ये लड़की फ़ाक़ाकश होती तो बदसूरत नज़र आती”
