Dr. Albert Einstein:

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious, the source of all

true art and science. People who believe in physics know that the distinction between past,

present, and future is only a persistent illusion.

 

A human being is a part of a whole, limited in time and space experiencing his thoughts

as something separated from the rest - a kind of delusion or prison. Our task must be to free ourselves

by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of beauty in nature.

 

For not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted."

Henry Fosdick, Professor & Clergyman

"I would rather live in a world surrounded by mystery than a world so small my mind could comprehend."

Whitney Young

"The truth is that there is nothing noble in being superior to somebody else.

The only real nobility is in being superior to your former self."

Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Human salvation lies in the hands of the creatively maladjusted."

 

"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.

Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."

 

"Only when it is dark enough, can you see the stars."

Carl Jung, psychoanalyst

"The truly spiritual person is a free thinker who demands experience
of God rather than mere faith."

Bell Hooks

The moment we choose to love we begin to move towards freedom ...

Jesus

When the Pharisees asked Jesus when the Kingdom of Heaven would arrive he replied:

"A man cannot say lo it is here or lo it is there, for the kingdom of God is within you."

- For the truth shall be written in your heart to set you free.

Hugh Prather

True humor is fun - it does not put down, kid, or mock. It makes people
feel wonderful, not separate, different, and cut off. True humor has beneath it the
understanding that we are all in this together.

John Ruskin

"The highest reward for a man's toil is not what he gets for it but what he becomes by it."

Victor Hugo

"There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world,

and that is an idea whose time has come."

Forgiveness is remembering without bitterness ...

 

Perhaps the primary reason for being in this world is to learn

valuable lessons rather achieve what would seem just.
