# 103.

The man who never does more than he gets paid for,
seldom gets paid for more than what he does.

Remember the banana- every time it leaves the bunch - it gets skinned!

Pray for good harvest but keep on hoeing.

Happiness is not the end of life-but character is.
 
# 104.

It is easier to do a job right - than explain why you didn't.

Salesperson who covers the chair instead of the territory always remains on bottom.

The greatest of faults is to be conscious of none.

Quitters never win; Winners never quit.
 
கவிஞர் வாலியின் திரையிசைப் பாடல்களைத் தொகுத்து "வாலி 1000" என்ற பெயரில்
இரண்டு தொகுதிகளாக வெளியிட்டிருக்கிறார்கள்.

கவிஞர் வாலியின் பல திரைப்படப் பாடல்கள் கவியரசு கண்ணதாசனுடையது என்று பலரும்
நினைத்துக் கொண்டிருக்கிறார்கள் என்பது மட்டுமல்ல, கவியரசரின் பாடல் என்று
மேற்கோள்கூடக் காட்டுகிறார்கள்.

இந்தத் தொகுப்பு அதற்கு ஒரு முற்றுப்புள்ளி வைக்கக்கூடும்.

கவிஞர் வாலியின் திரையிசைப் பாடல்களின் தொகுப்பைப் பார்த்தபோது, கவிஞர்
வாலியின் கவியரங்கப் பாடல்கள் நினைவுக்கு வந்தன.

வாலி தலைமையிலான ஒருசில கவியரங்கங்களில் முன்வரிசை இரசிகராகக் கவியரசர்
கண்ணதாசன் வந்தமர்ந்து இரசித்த நிகழ்வுகளுக்கு நான் சாட்சியாக
இருந்திருக்கிறேன்.

கவியரங்கத்தில் இலக்கிய நயத்துடன் சமயோசிதமாகக் கவிதை புனையும் கவிஞர் வாலி,
திரைப்பாடல்களில் வர்த்தக நோக்குடன் மெட்டுக்குப் பாடல் எழுதுவதைப் பற்றி அவரே
ஒரு கவியரங்க மேடையில் தனது பதிலைப் பதிவு செய்திருக்கிறார்.

"இங்கே நான்
வண்ண மொழிப் பிள்ளைக்குத்
தாலாட்டும் தாய்;
அங்கே நான்
விட்டெறியும் எலும்புக்கு
வாலாட்டும் நாய்!

எந்தப்பா சினிமாவில்
எடுபடுமோ விலைபெறுமோ
அந்தப்பா எழுதுகிறேன்
எந்தப்பா? நீர் சொல்லும்!

மெட்டுக்குள் கருத்தரித்து
மெல்லவே இடுப்புநோகத்
துட்டுக்குத் தகுந்தவாறு
முட்டையிடும் பெட்டைக்கோழி!''

என்பதுதான் கவிஞர் வாலியின் அந்தப் பதிவு.

வார்த்தை வித்தகம் என்பது கவிஞர் வாலிக்குக் கருவில் கிடைத்த வரம்.

கவிஞர் வாலியின் கவியரங்கக் கவிதைகளும் புத்தகமாகத் தொகுக்கப்பட வேண்டியவை.

திரையிசைப் பாடல்கள் மெட்டுக்குக் கருத்தரித்தவை என்றால், கவியரங்கப் பாடல்கள்
இலக்கிய முத்திரைக்குத் தகுதியானவை.

கவிஞர் வாலியின் 1000 திரையிசைப் பாடல்களைக் கவிஞர் பழனிபாரதியும், கவிஞர்
நெல்லை ஜெயந்தாவும் தேர்ந்தெடுக்க, திருநின்றவூர் சந்தான கிருஷ்ணன்
தொகுத்தளித்திருக்கிறார்.

தேர்ந்தெடுத்திருக்கும் பாடல்களில் எதுவும் பழுதில்லை. ஆனால், தொகுத்திருக்கும்
விதத்தில்தான் குழப்பம் தெரிகிறது.

ஒரு கவிஞனின் படைப்புகளை - அது திரையிசைப் பாடல்களாகவே இருந்தாலும் -
காலவரிசைப்படி தொகுப்பதுதான் சரியான தொகுப்பாக இருக்க முடியும்.

அகர வரிசைப்படி தொகுக்க இது என்ன அகராதியா?

சரி, அகர வரிசைப்படித் தொகுத்தார்களே, ஒவ்வொரு பாடல் வெளிவந்த திரைப்படமும்,
எந்த ஆண்டு வெளிவந்தது என்கிற விவரமாவது இருக்க வேண்டாமா?

When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on!

The superior man blames himself;
The inferior man blames the others!

When in doubt, follow your conscience
and apply the golden rule.

Conceit is God's gift to little men.
 
Personally I don't care whether Vali write 1000 songs or 10,000 songs!

I am just wondering what is there 'to ponder about them' in this thread!

Every one is welcome to contribute to the threads-but without defiling them

in that process!

Posts like these remind me of an elephant's head transplanted on a lion's body-

ruining the looks and beauty of both the animals.:doh:
 
# 106.

A man is incapable of consoling another only
when his words come not from his heart.

In joys and woes the saints will aid,
if men will call,
for the blue sky bends over all.

A Good company is worth anything in the world.
A good friend anything in the universe.

The five "C" of a successful marriage:

Courtesy...Are you tactful, kind and appreciative?

Companionship...Are you a real good friend?

Cooperation...Are you good in sharing joys and sorrows?

Cheerfulness...Is your home a nice place to come back to?

Children...Are you taking this insurance against boredom?
 
# 108.

As old wood is best to burn,

Old horse is best to ride,

Old books are best to read,

Old wines are best to drink,

So are old friends always,

Most trusty to use.
 
# 109.

It is God's wish that we take His comforting as largely and mightily as we might,
and also we take our troubles as lightly as we might and set them at naught.

God makes provision for victory and never for defeat.

God lifts up all those who are down and out and makes them winners.
 
# 110.

More than half the troubles in the world come because of words.

These three sieves will keep some words from being spoken:

Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary?

A cup brimful of sweet water cannot spill even one drop of bitter water -

however jolted.

Fill your heart with the sweet honey of love so that

you will never spill out a bitter word.
 
111.

Tomorrow can only be what you have done today.

We must put our temper in a fire-proof safe and double lock it.

Let thoughts precede action. Naught was accomplished without plans.

'Take care of your coat while it is new.
Take care of your honor while it is young".
 
# 112.

"Our lives are songs, God writes the words,
And we set them the music at pleasure;
And the song grows glad or sweet or sad,
As we choose to fashion the measure."

God is a cosmic bell-boy for whom we can
press a button to get what we want.
 
# 113.

"Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation,

for it is better to be alone than with bad company."

George Washington.

"If you destroy a free market, you create a black market.

If you have ten thousand regulations, you destroy all respect for law."

Churchill.
 
#114.

We do not count a man's years until he has nothing else to count.

What is lovely never dies, but passes into other loveliness.

He who has a thousand friends has not a friend to spare.

He who has an enemy shall meet him everywhere.

Love is only a chatter.

Friends are all that matter.
 
#115.

All ambitions are lawful, except those which climb
upwards on the miseries or credulity of mankind.

"Those friends thou hast,
And their adoptions tried,
Grapple them to your soul
With hoops of steel."

Against a foe I can myself defend-
But Heaven protect me from a blundering friend.
 
# 116.

Fortune favors the bold.

Don't say things! What you are stands over you all the while and
thunders so that I can not hear what you say to the contrary.

Cowards die many times before their deaths.
The valiant never taste of death but once.

Evil is wrought by want of thought
as well as by want of heart.
 
# 117.

"Good and the bad are each less so than they seem."
Coleridge.

There are enough hardships and sufferings in the world,
without our becoming liberal contributions.

I judge nobody save those I love
and I judge only their excellence.
 
# 118.

Everyone wants to live at the expense of the State.

They forget that the State lives at the expense of everyone.

True stories don't always have happy endings.

There is always a danger for those who are afraid of it.
 
# 119.

Some people find faults -
as if they were buried treasures!

A good scare is worth more to a man,
than a good advice!

A second marriage is the best example of
the triumph of Hope over Experience!
 
# 120.

Be true to yourself and you can never be false to anyone.

Be Cheerful and fear nothing.

Little drops make the mighty ocean.

Little acts of kindness make the life worth living.
 
Purpose of Life:


I have no particular subject or issue to write. As a person who had walked the distance of life for seventy nine years, I wish to share all that pass through my mind time to time.

I would like to start my writing with the words of that great Greek Philosopher, Socrates “ True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing, that makes you smartest of all“.
When you pass through The Three phases of Life, “Childhood, Youth and Married Life” you feel that you have completed your busy life of taking care of your so called responsibilities, your mind and body gets the rest that you yearn for. When the “Mind” is at peace, you start seeing the purpose of Life clearly. The purpose of Life is “Nothing”, yes Sir, we have not done anything in the world to add or subtract from the Creator's intentions of this world. What ever anybody claims to have done is only the re-arrangement of what was and is there.

Dear Mr. Brahmanyan,

There are two universal Laws called 'The Law of conservation of Mass' and

'The law of conservation of Energy.'

As stated by you with regards to the purpose of Human life on earth,

we can neither increase nor decrease the total mass of things in the universe.

Neither can we increase nor decrease the total energy in the universe.

All we can do is to transform them from one form to another-sometimes in

reversible actions and at other times in irreversible reactions.

The moment we realize this absolute truth, we are qualified to become

seekers of true knowledge. :hail:

Dear Mrs Visalakshi Ramani,

This truth I found out from observation. I am not a student of Science, of course I have read many books on Scientific subjects except Physics. This was from my first post "By the way...." in my blog in August 2006.
By the way. . . . .

Doubt is a precious thing:

Our own Great thinker and Philosopher Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895-1986) said "Doubt is a precious thing, it cleanses and purifies the mind, the very questioning, the very fact that the seed of doubt is in one, helps to clarify our investigations." I am an ardent admirer of J.Krishnamurti. (Since J.K. was against creation of following I do not use the word follower ). Like Bhagwan Ramana Mahrishi and Nisrgadatta Maharaj, he encouraged the person to question himself and find the answer. But I wish to stress that the Doubt should be real, arising out of thirst for finding an answer, not frivolous one. An open mind, like that of a child's, is the precious gift of birth as a human being. As a grand father I used to watch the mind of my beloved grand children, when they question me on various things that they observe. Then I understood how much of muck have gathered in my mind all these years due to wasteful exposure to unwanted things around me. Now can I think or listen straight and enjoy good Music without comparing within my mind.
