Quotes About Karna

Through Karna, Vyasa reiterates that our knowledge of the world is imperfect based on perceptions and false information. We are surrounded by Kuntis who hide the truth in fear. We are surrounded by Karnas, villains who are actually brothers.
~ Devdutt Pattanaik
In Hindu mythology, there is no one but ourselves to blame for our problems: neither God nor any oppressors. The idea of rebirth aims to evoke acceptance of the present, and responsibility for the future. Our immortal soul is tossed from one life to another as long as our mind refuses to do darshan. This is made most explicit in the story of Karna in the Mahabharata.
~ Devdutt Pattanaik
I feel Karna is the noblest character in the 'Mahabharat,' and Duryodhan is reason for the war between cousins.
~ Puneet Issar
