Truth

'Truth is a pathless land' - so declared JK, so famously in his 1929 address that dissolved the order of the star. Many saints and mystics have often opined that once the idea has been conveyed, the words used to convey them are irrelevant. Still, sometimes I feel a better phrasing of the famous quote would have been something along these lines - 'Truth is a land with infinite paths but what is a path for one may be a deadend for another'.

PS: Of course am crazy to try and rephrase such a beautiful pithy statement that is so delightfully loaded with tonnes of ideas but I am right now bored and a bored mind is the fools workshop :)

You can make your own quotes, the only ones who read it/listen to it will be idiots like me :).
