Here are 11 quotes by the author who is famous for her book- “How I Taught My Grandmother to Read” which has been an inspiration for many across India and is also included in the academic syllabus:
- The struggle is Life!
- Trust is difficult to earn and easy to destroy.
- Too much money in too little time is just like excess liquor
- One should stick to what one can do best.
- Money mostly divides.
- A fire cannot be extinguished with another fire. It is the only water that can make a difference.
- Life is an exam where the syllabus is unknown and question papers are not set. Nor are there model answer papers.
- Nature is very intelligent. Whether you are good-looking or not, whether you are intelligent or not, whether you are rich or not, you only have 24 hours a day. Whatever your set of problems or difficulties or solutions, you have to accommodate all of them in 24 hours.
- It doesn’t matter how intelligent you are, how well-off you are, or how well-connected you are. Your perseverance, your courage – if you keep that intact, only such people will always be successful.
- Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision is merely passing time. But vision and action together can change the world.
- Having good relationships, compassion, and peace of mind is much more important than achievements, awards, degrees, or money.
