Some of the finest beacon during life’s crests and troughs, have been the writers, philosophers, artists, leaders we have grown up admiring. Be it Rabindranath Tagore or Munshi Premchand’s portrayal of human nature, Socrates and Aristotle philosophical musings, Mahatma Gandhi or Nelson Mandela’s fight for freedom, Fyodor Dostoevsky or Alexandre Dumas’ analyses of our own multiplicity, Khaled Hosseini or Margaret Atwood battle with the soul—the wisdom of their words continues to nurture the soul.
