Maxims and Reflections on Personal Failure by Debjeet Das is a wonderful collection of motivational quotes and arbitrary feelings from the author which have the dimension to mould the readers into better people when taken those quotes to the heart. The book is such that the reader can start reading from any page. The author has touched upon many themes and has voiced a plethora of sentiments through his quotes. These one-liners discover the idea of love, independence, agony, and anguish among innumerable other topics. This collection of 877 quotes will give its reader a whole new outlook towards the world. All the quotes are relevant and hence offer guaranteed help at least at one point in your life.

The use of simple language and succinct vocabulary has made the book more alluring. At times I found a few phrases unclear. The thoughts are not clear in those and that might be because of the limited words used to frame up the quote. In short, the book helps creates an insightful observations from your conscious and shapes them into the context so that they could be used efficiently as and when required.

All in all a great motivational read. Highly recommended if looking for encouragement, impetus or reflection.
