We talk a lot on 'Biggest Loser' about how fitness is a natural antidepressant how it burns off stress. What I like about running is that it gives me time alone. I'm always busy with people at work with my kids. I love getting out for a run by myself and just listening to my music.

When I'm alone I work sometimes with music sometimes without and sometimes just listening to NPR.

Another thing I like to do is sit back and take in nature. To look at the birds listen to their singing go hiking camping and jogging and running walking along the beach playing games and sometimes being alone with the great outdoors. It's very special to me.

It is not necessary that you leave the house. Remain at your table and listen. Do not even listen only wait. Do not even wait be wholly still and alone. The world will present itself to you for its unmasking it can do no other in ecstasy it will writhe at your feet.

None of us will ever accomplish anything excellent or commanding except when he listens to this whisper which is heard by him alone.

Listen in England people are already writing their memoirs at the age of 23.

A lot of music you might listen to is pretty vapid it doesn't always deal with our deeper issues. These are the things I'm interested in now particularly at my age.

At the age when Bengali youth almost inevitably writes poetry I was listening to European classical music.
