Bea Arthur and Amita Malik

The past two days have been rather tragic. Two legends, Bea Arthur and Amita Malik, have passed away. They have left us great volumes of work to remember them by.

What motivates one is love. True love manifests itself in selfless acts.

Among my top 3 favourite books of all time is George Eliot's "Middlemarch."

Here is the last paragraph of that novel:

Her finely touched spirit had still its fine issues, though they were not widely visible. Her full nature, like that river of which Cyrus broke the strength, spent itself in channels which had no great name on the earth. But the effect of her being on those around her was incalculably diffusive: for the growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.
