So abased, so monotonous is everything that meets the eye, that when the Ganges comes down it might be expected to wash the excrescence back into the soil.

We are all born into families and cultures we didn’t choose, given names we didn’t pick, instructed in behaviour and values we might not have freely chosen, and too often we end up expected to live lives designed by others Picture Quote #1

I think it backfired. It wasn’t what I expected, it was difficult. I didn’t expect them to throw somany mind games into it. I didn’t expect to be so emotional, but I asked for it really. I’ma glutton for punishment Picture Quote #1

Now, at the end of three years struggle the nation’s condition is not what either party, or any man devised, or expected. God alone can claim it Picture Quote #1
