Chandragupt by Jaishankar Prasad

Chandragupta is a prominent play by Jaishankar Prasad. It is a play about the rise of Mauryan Empire founder Chandragupta Maurya and the fall of King Dhana Nanda, the ruler of superpower Magadh. Also, it is a story about Chanakya’s revenge and his beliefs. One of the quote from the book I liked: मनुष्य साधारण धर्मा पशु है, विचारशील होने से मनुष्य हो सकता है और निःस्वार्थ कर्म करने से वही देवता भी हो सकता है। Meaning: Human is originally an animal, by thinking it can become human and by doing unselfish work he only can become god.

रश्मिरथी

Rashmirathi is a Hindi epic poem written by Ramdhari Singh Dinkar. It tells the story of Karna, one of the central characters in the Indian epic Mahabharata. The poem is divided into seven chapters or sargas. Here are some interesting quotes from Rashmirathi: 1. “जिसके खत में उसका नाम नहीं, वह कब तक खुद का है अपना?” (Jiske khat mein uska naam nahin, woh kab tak khud ka hai apna?) - Whose letter does not have his name, how long will he be his own? 2. “जो अपने दुख से दूसरों को दुखी करे, वह क्षण-भंगुर है सुखी कहलाने के लायक नहीं।” (Jo apne dukh se doosron ko dukhi kare, woh kshan-bhangur hai sukhi kahlaane ke layak nahin.) - He who makes others unhappy with his own sorrow is not worthy of being called happy even for a moment. 3. ऊँच-नीच का भेद न माने, वही श्रेष्ठ ग्यानी है, दया धर्म जिसमे हो, सबसे वही पूज्य प्राणी है। Meaning: A learned man should not believe in the distinction between upper and lower echelons of society. One who has forgiveness should be revered. 4. तन से समरशूर, ...

The Joker- The Best

Gotham National Bank Manager : The criminals in this town used to believe in things. Honor. Respect. Look at you! What do you believe in? What do you believe in! The Joker : I believe whatever doesn't kill you simply makes you... stranger. The Joker : You just couldn't let me go could you? This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. You truly are incorruptible aren't you? You won't kill me out of some misplaced sense of self-righteousness, and I won't kill you, because you're just too much fun. I think you and I are destined to do this forever. Batman : You'll be in a padded cell forever. The Joker : Maybe we can share one. They'll be doubling up, the rate this city's inhabitants are losing their minds. Batman : Then why do you want to kill me? The Joker : [laughs] I don't want to kill you! What would I do without you? Go back to ripping off mob dealers? No, no, you... you complete me. The Joker : [speaking to Two-Fa...
