India wants to avoid a war at all costs but it is not a one-sided affair, you cannot shake hands with a clenched fist.
Indira Gandhi

Margaret Thatcher
In the Kaliyuga, man, being totally dependent on food for life, cannot altogether shake off the idea that he is the body. In this state of mind it is not proper for him to say: "I am He". When a man does all sorts of worldly things, he should not say, "I am Brahman". Those who cannot give up attachment to worldly things, and who find no means to shake off the feeling of "I", should rather cherish the idea, "I am God's servant; I am His devotee."
Ramakrishna
"I'm still glad that we didn't shake their hands. They were whiners and criers. Piss on them."
Bill Laimbeer
"All the people you meet here have one thing to teach you." Eddie was skeptical. His fists stayed clenched. "What?" he said. "That there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you can no more separate one life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind."
