190. To be angry is to avenge the fault of others on ourselves.
- Alexander Pope

189. A wise person when alone has all the occupation and interest he needs for reflection and communing with himself.

188. He is richest that has the fewest wants.

187. Why can’t we learn from the gardener who keeps the sapling tied to a straight stick till it becomes tough enough to stand erect on its own? Disciplining is of the utmost necessity but, alas, it is often realized when it is already too late and nothing is left to be done. Pampering, shockingly, is even justified at times. It is our duty to let the kid live life fully and enjoy its infancy, babyhood and childhood days, it is contended. Granted.  But, isn’t it also true that excess of anything is bad. It is bound to backfire. To an extent things can be justified. But, only to an extent.
- Sujit Mukerji

186. If we have –
Patience, tolerance, the will to sacrifice and do penance, devotion and respect;
Then we will get –
Love, care, peace, respect, position, grace, dignity, distinctive identity … all the positive things (you name it).
- Sujit Mukerji

185. Love means giving, not getting. True love calls for a lot of sacrifice. It means one doesn’t impose anything on the loved one. It means one dedicates oneself for the ultimate well-being of the loved one.
- Sujit Mukerji

184. Even a cheat doesn’t want to be cheated.
- Sujit Mukerji

183. Strong reasons make strong actions.
- William Shakespeare

182. The used key is always bright.

181. Some men are wise and some are otherwise.
- Smollett
