Quote unquote [Draft]

For last 4 years, I followed a ritual called “a quote a day”, that would sum up to 1440 quotes (few of them are Jokes too) as of today. Most of the credit goes to Mr. Murty (My mentor in Poetry), he is the one who initiated and he as well makes a regular follow up when i miss a day or two…he always used to say something very profound to me....If you have a poetic madness, you should have something to your daily regime; else, you eventually die to boredom.

I am taking up a mental exercise, where in I would go on an alphabetical order and try to recollect from my messy memory, the quotes I could recall..Here, is how the list goes…
