Children learn many principles of natural law at a very early age. For example: they learn that when one child has picked up an apple or a flower, it is his, and that his associates must not take it from him against his will.

Flowers make me irrationally happy.

Do not allow setbacks to set you back.

I was the ghost-faced killer for Halloween in the third or fourth grade.

While planting woodlands along rivers has been shown to work in small areas, it has been unclear whether it would be effective on a larger scale. But computer modelling indicates that restoring forests on floodplains could slow floodwaters and reduce the height of the flood downstream.

We all relate to having highs and lows. Everyone gets depressed.

Why, when India's agricultural products are among the cheapest in the world despite a low yield per hectare, are we not able to double the production and export the products abroad?

Laws are there for a reason, and we have an obligation to follow them.

I don't follow any system. All the laws you can lay down are only so many props to be cast aside when the hour of creation arrives.

Let us touch the dying, the poor, the lonely and the unwanted according to the graces we have received and let us not be ashamed or slow to do the humble work.

I have 265,000 followers on Twitter - before I was banned.

If you follow reason far enough it always leads to conclusions that are contrary to reason.

I've always kept a low profile, and I like it that way.

Act quickly, think slowly.

You can't ever get too high or too low.

If a woman is confident, she believes in herself and is really happy from the inside, you'll see that glow.

I didn't want to become a chocolatier among others, buying ready-to-use couverture. I wanted to take the same approach I follow in my cuisine: putting the product first, revealing the authentic taste of the products.

GPS is expensive because it is a very slow communication channel - you need to communicate with three or four satellites for an extended duration at 50 bits per second.

Slow, skinny, and an utter countryside coward: I lived in dread of nettles, spiders, and the very sound of a wasp. As a victim, I was beneath the dignity of the bullies in my year but fair game to the ones in the year below.

There's no dearth of kindness in this world of ours; Only in our blindness we gather thorns for flowers.
