130 million off the rolls says CJP-Congress? Not so - likely closer to 7 million, less than 1 % of those eligible to vote. None should be excluded. True. But a Goebbelsian lie repeated ad nauseam does not convert it into truth. indianexpress.com/article/op…

It's good to read fiction as a younger person. Because as you get older it gets harder. You need your reading to hit hard after 35. Many novels don't deliver that strength.

'Alarm’ was originally a call to arms. The Italian phrase ‘all’arme!’ means literally “to arms” or “to your weapons.” We'd still probably hit 'snooze.'

As I'm reading Hemingway, I'm again reminded of Joan Didion describing him as her greatest influence. And this beautiful description of his writing: 'I mean they're perfect sentences. Very direct sentences, smooth rivers, clear water over granite, no sinkholes.'

What causes #poverty? Nothing. It's the original state, the default and starting point. The real question is, What causes #prosperity?

During the interview for the Indian Civil Services in pre-1947 era, an Indian named RN Noronha was asked “Tell me, Mr Noronha, apart from the salary, what attracted you to the I.C.S.?" He replied with another question “Apart from the salary, is there any attraction?” The man went on to top the list of Indian candidates.

Both "magic" and "machine" trace back to the Proto-Indo-European root magh, meaning "to be able" or "to have power."

Every man eventually discovers that competence is the only real stabilizer of self-esteem; no amount of praise, affirmation, or philosophical comfort can replace the confidence that comes from knowing you can produce results even when conditions are hostile.
