Famous quotes containing the words guru, singh and/or university:

    “One does not become a guru by accident.”
    —James Fenton (b. 1949)

    “To be friends with camel owners,
    you cannot live in huts with low doors.”
    —Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.

    “It is in the nature of allegory, as opposed to symbolism, to beg the question of absolute reality. The allegorist avails himself of a formal correspondence between “ideas” and “things,” both of which he assumes as given; he need not inquire whether either sphere is “real” or whether, in the final analysis, reality consists in their interaction.”
    —Charles, Jr. Feidelson, U.S. educator, critic. Symbolism and American Literature, ch. 1, University of Chicago Press (1953)
