A Quote by Shankar Mahadevan

Chinmaya Mission has been a very strong part of my life since childhood. I have been associated with Chinmaya Mission since primary school days, where I was part of group singing and bhajans in the Bal Vihar classes.
I am somebody who is very comfortable on stage because I have been performing since childhood. I have done a lot of public events as well, though there is a huge difference in my performances today and the ones from my childhood, as earlier, I used to sing bhajans.
If I were part of Gaganyaan, I could have been sure that for the next few years, there would have been a second space mission and a third space mission.
I always felt that I had a mission in life. I thought I was born to play sports. Even now, I still feel that must have been my mission because I came through so many close calls where my life could very easily have been ended.
I've been writing music since I was 9. I took harmony and counterpoint classes when I was studying the clarinet. So, I've been writing for an awfully long time. It just became part of everyday life.
I feel very privileged to be part of this mission, and when my nomination was announced, I was really very, very happy to be selected for this mission.
For Komen, for myself, the mission was always foremost in everyone's mind. The mission and the women that we serve. The only group that made this issue political has been Planned Parenthood.
A core part of Teach For America's mission has always been affecting positive change in the traditional public school system.
Religion has been an essential part of my life ever since I was baptised. My personal journey with God has been very important throughout my life.
I'd been wanting to audition for the Raiderettes for a while. The irony is that I didn't have time when I was in law school, but as a practicing attorney I did. I've been dancing since I was 3, so it's natural to want that part of my life, the love of performing, satisfied.
The thing that strikes me now when I think about the Wilderness of Childhood is the incredible degree of freedom my parents gave me to adventure there. A very grave, very significant shift in our idea of childhood has occurred since then. The Wilderness of Childhood is gone; the days of adventure are past. The land ruled by children, to which a kid might exile himself for at least some portion of every day from the neighboring kingdom of adulthood, has in large part been taken over, co-opted, colonized, and finally absorbed by the neighbors.
Well, I think it's real important that people understand, first and foremost, those of us that have lived in Arizona or in southern California, we have a very diverse population. The Hispanic population has been part of all of our lives since we've been born here or since we've grown up here.
I've been playing music since I was four, so it's part of my life. It's all I know. It's just a part of my everyday living.
Telenovelas have been part of my world since childhood, I always felt like I had to be something that I wasn't.
I'd been singing since I was 14 and on the road since high school, and I was very independent. Then I was Miss U.S.A. and had to have a chaperone and spent a year opening supermarkets. It was all so silly, wearing a crown and banner when it was the 1970s and women's liberation was everywhere. That was quite a stigma to overcome.
I live a very normal life. I have friends, and I've always gone to school. The part that's not normal is that I've been working since I was 9 months old, but at the same time, it's completely normal to me.
I've been singing since I was 8 years old and working in clubs since I was 14. I've been working full time since I was 16.
