Valmiki Quotes about Love

  • Where there is love and goodness, evil has no place to grow.
  • You cannot count on the physical proximity of someone you love, all the time. A seed that sprouts at the foot of its parent tree remains stunted until it is transplanted. Rama will be in my care, and he will be quite well. But ultimately, he will leave me too. Every human being, when the time comes, has to depart to seek his fulfilment in his own way.
  • Rama’s life is an eternal testament to the victory of good over evil, a tale of love, sacrifice, and honor.
