“And this one thing is what gives the confidence, however out of place this confidence might seem, to be absolutely unworried about the permanence of this bond. How can you somehow lose your reflection?” - Vikram

Muse

v. intr. To consider or say thoughtfully

About Vikram:

You can find a somewhat outdated personal home page here. Further, you can also check out my linkblog to see what sort of stuff I am interested in these days. You can see photos on Flickr. Here is my linkedin profile and the company I started.

If you still want to know more, try a couple of searches.

Eventually, I will write something more interesting here.
