Arundhati is an Indian creator and she is most popular for her clever The God Of Small Things. This novel won the Man Booker Prize for Fiction in 1997. It was the best-selling book by an Indian author. Here we look at a few motivational quotes by Arundhati Roy.

* To love, to be loved. To never forget your insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity of life around you. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power.

* People who promote a free market are far more romantic and far more ideologically driven and blinded by their vision than someone who goes and comments about the beauty of the forest or stars in the sky.

* There are no such things as the voiceless. They are only deliberately silenced or the preferably unheard.

* Colourful demonstrations and weekend marches are vital but alone are not powerful enough to stop the war. Ward will be stopped only when soldiers refuse to fight, workers refuse to load weapons onto ships and aircraft.

* As a woman who grew up in a village in India, I have spent my whole life-fighting tradition. There is no way that I want to be a traditional Indian Housewife.

* It’s odd how those who dismiss the peace movement as utopian, don’t hesitate to proffer the most absurdly dreamy reasons for going to war: to stamp out terrorism, install democracy, eliminate fascism.

Those were a few motivational quotes from Arundhati Roy.
