- Nothing is better than something, sometimes.
- Imagination is more powerful than you can imagine. Power is more imaginary than really potent.
- The single biggest fear that haunts every single IIT student is an explusion, losing the degree. It is also a remarkably well-exploited fear by the rank and file.
- Sadism is an art. Masochism is a science.
- With some people, nothing they ever say really reaches you. Even if you hear the sincerest I love you a 100 times, it just doesn't cut it.
- "Believe in the step function."
- You can live for someone other than yourself. It may not be the best or wisest thing to do.
- What people do to get attention!
- I still prefer an arranged marriage over a love marriage, and the margin is huge.

1.Really?
2.It is.
3.Hmmm...
4.:-)
5.Ok!
6.Hmm..
7.Seriously!
8.Arrange marriage, any day.
Thanks for sharing...!
1. True
2. Very True
3. Very Very True :D
4. I guess
5. One of the truest things I've read on this blog.
6. Asking for a bit much, but if you insist...
7. You can also jump off a cliff. Don't expect to live when the whole thing ends.
8. Anything!
9. No marriage?
1. obviously .. the randomness hidden in the word "something" can be dangerous
2. Well said
3. 4 saal lag gaye ye pata chalne mein? :)
4. Do you want to say artists are happier/better-off than scientists? :P
5. Yes :(
6. samajh nahi aaya
7. ...
8. Why is 'seeking attention' looked at with so much disgust?
9. ...
So the learning phase continues... the entire life....
1. correct!
2. imagination..uhhh yes.. power mmmm not sure, actually there is nothing called "power" only the misuse of your responsibilities gets the name as "power"
3. so that is what makes us study ???
4. waah!
5. right...
6. :-)
7. yes it might not be the wisest thing, but it might bring you happiness, because you want to do that, in that phase that madness gives you all the pleasure.
8. seriously, they can go to extents you can never imagine :-)
9. agree with it... see me :-P
Wow.....
for 1st I totally agree...
Cudnt get ur point...what people do to get attention??
Huge margin....in love or arrange....ahem ahem..:-))
1. I'd like to be partially dumb for a moment, and say- everything that contains the word 'nothing' has two opposite meanings, simultaneously. So, in a way, "nothing" encapsulates the whole life. Nah, nothing can!
4. Depends, I guess.
8. .. but the most easiest and efficient ways are rather self-deprecating. :D
Nothing is better....something makes u greedy and leaves u craving for more...!! :((
Agreed!!
Dunno!! :(
Refer ur point#2!! hehehehheh!!!
HMMM>>>>true!
???
Best or the wisest thing in that given circumstamces...!!
Everything and anything!!
marign...subjective!!!
[realistic me]
Haan really. Somethimes the something is so incomplete so transitory and yet so crucial it neither lets u live nor die. 0 or 1 works well, sometimes.
:D
[vibhav]
Anytime :P
[doc]
Lots of trues there,,,:P
No marriage is awesome, waise...but pros and cons to hote hi hain...between them, arrnage marriage wd be so much more convenient.:P
Sometimes jumping offf cliffs is fun, is right.
"Imagination is more powerful than you can imagine. Power is more imaginary than really potent." - lovely thought. :)
Why arranged marriage ? I mean, sure love marriage might not work out, but at least it was your own decision. Arranged marriage is like a compromise. Why is a compromise better than choice ?
As Freud said :
“Most people do not really want freedom, because freedom involves responsibility, and most people are frightened of responsibility.”
[:d]
Nice to see you around...
4 saal pata chalne mein to nahi lage, but suddenly realise hua ki is ek fear ko log..as in koi bhi kabhi bhi...KITNA exploit karte hain, and it works!!!!
I never said that, why would you imply sadists are better than masochists. I just said the former is more natural and the second more systemattic than the other ;)
Itna kuch samajhne ko nahi hai, just believe that things can happen in discrete steps rather than continuous decays and growths always.
Where was disgust? I had marvel!!! :)
[shantanu]
Learning never stops. If it does life begins to end.
Misuse is perhaps wat makes power so imaginarily powerful and desirable.
Yes, study and everything all, all regulation, one single fear, the fear of the degree. Any prof can threaten with an F, any dean with a sem expulsion, and virually anybody with a complaint leadign to disciplinary action.
7. Absolutely, it is the mad crazy passionate pleasure, and lets face it, life is for living happily, rather than simply surviving peacefully.
[chakoli]
Just exclaiming at whatt ALL people do..:)
Margin to hai yar..:P koi dhoond de ;)
[vik]
life is made up of even more than just two co-existent opposites. Hence "nothing" is incomplete, just like everything.
Self-deprecation becomes irrelevant. All publicity is publicity.
[rush.me]
Wahi na...soemthing is so damn tantalising.
:)
circumstances...ah dont get me started..
[veikiin]
:)
Arrnaged marriage because...convenient yar...love karne ke liye kisko dhoondo pehle to...fir use marriage ke liye patao..fir ghar walo ko patao...fir hazar issues and resolutions..and sara exciting romance shadi se pehle hi khatam ho jata hai...:P Living with someone is always tougher than courting them, so love marriage is like early peak n then a down slope. arrange marriage is the opposite...families are supportive and once u have ensured compatibility theek thak hai, falling in love will come. :P
It;s not about shunning responsibility, in fact about accepting the responsibility of loving a relative stranger for a life time
The last explanation for arranged marriages really is convincing!
:)
LOL....
Dekha sabka ek hi haal hain.....mujhe to mil nahi raha...aapke liye dhoodna chalku karti hoon;-))
[vartika]
:D
:P
[chakoli]
:D :D haan plssssssss :P
The pro-arranged marrige writeup really was convincing .. :)
I am sorry for being like completely rude and all, but couldn't stop but write this :
I wonder why all girls are sitting on the edges of their seats waiting to get married. Joking with each other about looking for a suitable match for them. Don't you guys love the single life ?
Don't worry yar, I'm not one in for marriage, if I could never ever. Arrnaged may win over love, but marriage itself is such a loser on my list of things to do in life....Chakoli i was hoping wd fine me smone for meanwhile...though i know thats nt gonna happen...
