The Atlas Shrugged

"You know, I think that the only real moral crime that one man can commit against another is the attempt to create, by his words or actions, an impression of the contradictory, the impossible, the irrational, and thus shake the concept of rationality in his victim."

Hank Rearden to Francisco D'Anconia

The Fountainhead

"Its too late, Peter," he said.

Keating nodded. "Guess I... knew that".

When keating had gone, Roark leaned against the door, closing his eyes. He was sick with pity.

This is pity, he thought, and then he lifted his head in wonder. He thought that there must be something terribly wrong with a world in which this monstrous feeling is called a virtue.

He relaxes like a cat-and Cats dont relax except with people they like.

Murder on Ring Road

There is one dead dog on ring road just before mahadevapura bus stop. :(

one Stoopid dog, i must say. it went forward and back, just to ensure it came right under the front tires of my pulsar.

it was dragged for some distance before lying still. i looked behind. it wasnt moving. no sound too (possibly cos it happened so fast, i dint focus on the screaming)

left the scene of crime. shocked and dazed about wat just happened. the brake pedal is bent. it should have hit very hard.

people's reactions:

1. why weren't you driving slow?!?

2. dont worry, i once hit a dog and a peacock (poor guy), and i dont know if they were killed

3. you were probably thinking about something while driving. whats bothering you?

4. its okay, lets plan to buy a pup

Expectations

How do you handle them at office?

Says one genius (read "genuine ass") at office: Before they can figure out the options to satisfy their expectations and suggest you a good one, which might involve more effort for you, call for a meeting, talk to them and convince them that what you are offering is the best they can expect from you and once they attend the meeting and agree, they cant complain later.

how do you live with it!?!

i seriously dont know how to play this game. Office politics and hypocricy at home is getting out of control.
