Given below are few excerpts from both the speeches by, Shah Rukh Khan and J.K.Rowling (Now it's up to you to guess which belongs to whom.)
Read it carefully:-
Excerpts from 1st Speech:
"I'd like to tell you all that life is not just a checklist of acquisitions, attainments and fulfillments. Your qualifications and CVs don't matter, your jobs don't matter. Instead, life is difficult and complicated and beyond your control, and to know that with humility, respecting your failures will help you survive its vicissitudes."
Excerpts from 2nd Speech:
"Happiness lies in knowing that life is not a check-list of acquisition or achievement. Your qualifications, your CV, are not your life, though you will meet many people of my age and older who confuse the two. Life is difficult, and complicated, and beyond anyone's total control and the humility to know that will enable you to survive its vicissitudes."
Here's another comparison:-
Excerpts from 1st speech:
"Let me tell you, poverty is not an ennobling experience at all. Poverty entails fear and stress and sometimes, depression. I've seen my parents go through it many times - it means a thousand petty humiliations and hardships."
Excerpts from 2nd speech:
"Poverty entails fear, and stress, and sometimes depression; it means a thousand petty humiliations and hardships."
In case you are not able to differentiate the words of your popular Idol's then here's the clue, the excerpts from the 1st speech are from Bollywood Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, while excerpts from 2nd speech are from J.K.Rowling.
