“My idea is this. You all come and live at the church. It’s warm, quiet, and I’ve got Sampson, the church car, right under my thumb...er...almost. The parson says if we do a few odd jobs we’ll be paid in cheese, best quality. He’s expecting us tomorrow morning if you want to come.”
“It’s not about how to achieve your dreams; it’s about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you.”
“From Market
Oh who’ll give us Posies,
And Garlands of Roses,
To twine round our heads to gay?
For here we come bringing
You many good wishes to-day.
From Market-from market-from market-
We all come up from market.”
