Singh Son

Famous quotes containing the words singh and/or son:

    It’s a tree on a riverbank: how long can it survive?
    Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.

    In the middle classes the gifted son of a family is always the poorest—usually a writer or artist with no sense for speculation—and in a family of peasants, where the average comfort is just over penury, the gifted son sinks also, and is soon a tramp on the roadside.
    —J.M. (John Millington)
