Q (because we’ve had enough of X’s) is a concept often
associated with the Indian state of Goa. Derived from
the Portuguese word socegado ("Quiet"), it is normally
mistaken for the relaxed, laid-back attitude towards life that
is said to have existed historically in Goa, a
former Portuguese territory. What Q actually means,
according to most experts is a contented form of life
existent in the state. Goa is described by a Sunday
Times writer as "South Asia’s Latin Quarter: indulgent,
tolerant, capricious, steeped in a tropical lassitude and
wedded to the sea."[1] The concept may also carry negative
connotations such as "indolence"[1] and in recent years it
has been suggested that the relaxed Goan culture of Q has
given way in the face of modern stresses.

You pick a door, say No. 1, and the host, who knows what's
behind the doors, opens another door, say No. 3, which has a
goat. He then says to you, "Do you want to pick door No. 2?" Is it
to your advantage to switch your choice?”

The following is the extract of a poem written by James X about the place :
I remember the day when I first came here
And smelt the sweet ____________ air
The trees and ground covered with snow
Gave us indeed a brilliant show
To me the place seemed like a dream
And far ran a lonesome stream
The wind hissed as if welcoming us
The pine swayed creating a lot of fuss
And the tiny cuckoo sang it away
A song very melodious and gay
I adored the place from the first sight
And was happy that my coming here was right
And eight good years here passed very soon
And we leave you perhaps on a sunny noon
Oh __________ we are leaving you now
To your natural beauty do I bow

The statue is located centrally in X Yard. Tour guides often
tell visitors it is good luck to rub John X's left foot. There is,
however, among the residents of the institution a
longstanding tradition of urinating on the statue at night.
