Marcel Proust
"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes."
A. A. Milne"Pay attention to where you are going because without meaning you might get nowhere."
A. R. Rahman"When I travel with my kids abroad, I am not myself, but I'm more a father who wants to protect them. Sometimes, I am even aggressive about certain things and get surprised seeing myself like that: for instance, when people want to take pictures of them. I am fine if they want to take my pictures, but they are not public property."
