Clever and Wise

Karla says - She does not think wise but she thinks clever.

There are 2 types of people (This is only one of all the keys of classification of humans) -

One is Wise people and the other is Clever people.

Wise people are practical. They give you the advice, probability of which to result into success is high. On the other hand, clever people are not always practical. They'll give you an advice which might not give success for what you are going to do the action. But you'll achieve something else which is more important only in the view of the *same* clever but unwise person.

I'm definitely not a wise person.

Quotes from Shantaram

Friend is anyone you don't despise.

If fate doesn't get you a laugh then you just don't get the joke.

I can't believe he mentioned about Shivsena in Shantaram too. Shivsena is an inseparable part of Bombay. If you talk about Bombay and they didn't come into picture, it has never happened. But that is not a good sign for all Marathi people. In fact, if you ask me, I'd call it bad. For Marathi people that might not make much difference. But non-Marathi do have bad impression of it. Now I know why some of the non-marathi people, when came to know that I'm a Marathi and especially a Marathi from Bombay/Mumbai, changed their way of looking at me. Talking about Marathi is like supporting these guys. And that's why even if I like something about Marathi, I avoid expressing it in front of others. I feel more comfortable when I praise Urdu Shayaris than when I praise a poem by Sandip Khare or some Charoli by Chandrashekhar Gokhale. :(
