“People keep looking for the perfect one, but perfection is an attribute of God alone.”

“That's the mistake people make - always searching for the perfect match, when they would be just as happy if they settled for somebody reasonably good.”

“There is no such thing as a perfect match. There are only somewhat good and somewhat bad matches. A couple are like two pebbles that are next to each other on a beach. They will have rough edges and rub each other the wrong way initially. But as they spend time together and the waves pound them, the edges rub off and they will seem made for each other.”

“You can have the whole world looking out for you, Pari, but it is not a substitute for that one special person to share your life with.”

“Oh, Vasu. People always talk; you have to learn to ignore them.”

“It's pointless giving advice to people who will not listen. It only reduces the value of your words.”
