A man may have much wealth and power. But if he has no children, he may feel very sad. Not only because there is no one to carry on his line. He also feels upset thinking that people are pitying his childless state.
Mahabharata
The greatest enemy is one with sweet words on the tongue and black hate in the heart.
Upanishads
The senses are exocentric. So Man sees the outer world and considers it real.
Hinduism
Through knowledge, man conquers the heavens.

Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya
Thou kingly bird of my mind! Give up thy vain wanderings and quest after other things, and sport for ever in the nest of Siva's feet, which are resorted to by the birds of holy men fluttering amidst the branches of the tree of the Vedas, and which are rendered charming by the fruits of liberation -- imperishable, joy-giving, pain-healing and nectarine.
Siva Sahasranama Stotram
The Creator of the five elements. Om bhuta bhavanaya namah
Quotations from Sri Aurobindo and the Mother (Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry)
Give all you are all you have; nothing more is asked of you but also nothing less.
