Gregory David Roberts People Quotations

Sometimes, when you live a life at such a wild edge, an extreme edge of experience, you can come back into the world - if you come back at all - with some essence from that experience that people find useful.

Nobody who has done business in any country with an Indian would doubt the shrewdness of Indians, but what Indian people bring to the world is something special and unique, which is the capacity for a loving interaction.

Some of the worst wrongs, were caused by people who tried to change things.

That's how they manage to live together, a billion of them, in reasonable peace. They are not perfect, of course. They know how to fight and lie and cheat each other, and all the things that all of us do. But more than any other people in the world, the Indians know how to love one another.

People say that love is the best thing in the world not power. But they are wrong. Love is the opposite of power and that's why we fear it so much.

Powerful people have no regrets.

Ask people for help. You’ll be all right. Don’t worry. It’s a great adventure, your life, and it has only just begun…

The simple and astonishing truth about India and Indian people is that when you go there, and deal with them, your heart always guides you more wisely than your head. There's nowhere else in the world where that's quite so true.

You can never tell what people have inside them until you start taking it away, one hope at a time

Praising people behind their back is monstrously unfair, because the one thing you can't defend yourself against is the good that people say about you.

Fanatics have the look of people who do not masturbate but who think about it almost all time.

You know the difference between news and gossip, don't you? News tells you what people did. Gossip tells you how much they enjoyed it.
