Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of quotes are collected on the "Life" page?
Big-picture, reflective quotes — about searching for meaning, wrestling with definitions of right and wrong, feeling drawn to some great mystery, and the way people gather to talk about life's biggest problems without always taking themselves too seriously.
Are these religious or spiritual quotes?

I want something for a status update — is that here?
Yes, short reflective lines like these work well as a Status update when you want to share something more thoughtful than a quick update.
Are there Hindi versions of these life reflections?
Yes — for similar sentiments in Hindi, take a look at Anmol Vachan or Suvichar.
