Pearls of Wisdom by Tom Hiddleston - HiddlesSpeak (1)

How often do we see a movie star espouse philosophy to eager admirers?
How often do we see a movie star espouse philosophy to eager admirers without the least display of condescension ?

How often do we see a movie star impart life lessons with such passion?
How often do we see a movie star impart life lessons because he truly cares for his admirers and wants them to follow their dreams?

How often do we come across a delectable combination of Greek-god looks and incandescent brilliance?
How often do we come across a movie star who actually rekindles your interest in academia?

The answer to all the above lies in the indescribable magic that is Tom Hiddleston.
Like the perfect romantic movie cliché goes, Tom Hiddleston makes me want to be the best person I can each day.


Here he is explaining a French quote, something that inspires him ceaselessly.
He never sounds pretentious as he talks, just someone who is immensely grateful to have been given an opportunity to share his thoughts with others.


Here is my representation of it. Combining my two great loves - Photography and Tom Hiddleston.


It is almost certain that after viewing this you will long to watch the entire conversation. So here you go. And you're welcome!



Philosophy, French quote, Shakespeare, acting insights, uncanny mimicry skills; AND a goosebumps-inducing Velociraptor impression?! Are you 'Hiddlestoned' yet?

His interviews are a joy to listen/read and a source of great learning too. He has such an amazingly beautiful mind and a truly compassionate soul.
It feels like a wonderfully invigorating class on films/poetry/music/Shakespeare/literature, albeit by a very handsome professor!

His tweets, unlike most other celebrity chatter, is anything but frivolous. They are witty and humorous. Profound and inspiring. Touching upon a plethora of subjects close to his heart. Expressed, of course, in the most impeccable and lyrical 140 characters ever!

Thank you Tom Hiddleston!Thank you for being the blessing and gift that you are! You are my sunshine and rainbows and moonbeams!

Remembering the Roses

" See Jehane...I remembered the roses ."  These poignant words form an abiding part of my childhood memories. It is not as if I have always remembered this line or the story it came from. But,sometimes, like a ray of glimmering sunlight through dark clouds,or like the melody of a long-forgotten song, it used to come back me to me,crystal clear. It still does... It was in the early '90s. My elder sister was in standard ten, preparing for her public exams. Her English curriculum comprised of this book called 'A Treasury of Short Stories'. I was probably in standard three or four, and devouring her English books counted as one of my favorite occupations.This story was featured last in that book. The name 'Remember the Roses' immediately struck a cord in my heart. I found something very beautiful,yet heartbreaking, very close yet intangible in this name. What added a touch of mystery and enigma to this alluring title was the fact that information on th

“You never really leave a place or person you love, part of them you take with you, leaving a part of yourself behind.” The perfect lines to begin my ode to Stockholm, the city where I spent the most amazing eighteen months of my life. I have loved Stockholm in all its moods, maybe sometimes a little less and at other times a little more, but have loved it nonetheless. Work took me to Stockholm in late autumn of 2011. The fall colours were still there, the red, brown, gold leaves on the trees and in colourful carpets on the ground, a very pleasant and welcoming sight. The beauty of Stockholm lies in its proximity to Nature. Undoubtedly, it is one of the most stunning capital cities in the world in this aspect. On a bright,sunny day the city might well be a painter’s lessons in different shades of blue and green. A year in Stockholm reveals the grandeur of the four seasons; spring, summer, autumn, winter p

The two most precious things in the city...

A friend in high school had once narrated an amusing anecdote about her Math tuition classes. Her teacher had explained a particular concept and had asked them to learn the related formulae by heart, learn them so well that they (the students) would be able to rattle them off at the snap of a finger at any time and at any place. To emphasize this part he had, apparently, given them quite a vivid example. "Suppose someone pushes you from the top of a thirty-storey building and in the midst of your free fall, a person pokes his head out of a fifteenth-storey window and asks you the formulae, you should be able to say them as fluently as you can sitting in my class " Well, speaking for myself, I don’t trust myself with formulae in such a cliffhanger of such a situation. However there is something which can be my forte in such a predicament. Leaving aside jumping from tall buildings, I’m pretty sure that if I am ever woken up on a freezing winter morning and asked to recite t
