Quotations from Devkota

FAME

"Love of fame, as Milton put it, is the last infirmity of a noble mind. I should, however, regard it as the first infirmity of the literary aspirant." ("Pulling Down the Higher Leg")

GOD

"God is the only consolation, your last stay." ("Life is the richest feast")

HEART

"Man's measure is his heart, not caste." (Muna-Madan)

"The heart's demand is a dream.
In this world, sorrow is the only reality." (Sulochana 7.12)

LOVE

"A house without love is a grave." (Sulochana 7.74)

MORALITY

"Can you doom human beings to famished wolfdom in your society or your state and expect normal standards of moral behaviour from them?" ("An Apology for the Child-Eater")

MOTHERHOOD

"The excellence of Aryan civilization rests on our reverence for motherhood." ("Mother's Heart," Laxmi Nibandha Sanghrah)

NON-VIOLENCE

Non-violence is a force, a working Power.
It is the soul's direction to a law.
It means not Death, no sleep to all the hour,
It means spiritual potence without a flaw. (Bapu and Other Sonnets xxvi)

TYRANNY

To be God oneself without responsibility is mere tyranny. ("The Sphinx's Riddle of a Double Government in Nepal")
