|
A human being is part of a whole, called by us the Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. |
Albert Einstein |

All that is human must retrograde if it does not advance |

All that mankind has done, thought or been: it is lying as in magic preservation in the pages of books. |
Thomas Carlyle |
|
All the ills of mankind, all the tragic misfortunes that fill the history books, all the political blunders, all the failures of the great leaders have arisen merely from a lack of skill at dancing. |
Moliere |

An evil man is trapped by his sinful talk, but a righteous man escapes trouble |
