Quote: Marcus Aurelius It is just charming how people boast about qualities beyond their control. For instance, âI am better than you because I have many estates, while you are practically starvingâ; or, âIâm a consul,â âIâm a governor,â or âI have fine curly hair.â Marcus Aurelius
Quote: Albert Einstein I am content in my later years. I have kept my good humor and take neither myself nor the next person seriously. Albert Einstein
Quote: Marcus Aurelius One thing I know: all the works of mortal man lie under sentence of mortality; we live among things that are destined to perish. Marcus Aurelius
Quote: C. S. Lewis I wrote this story for you, but when I began it I had not realized that girls grow quicker than books. As a result you are already too old for fairy tales, and by the time it is printed and bound you will be older still. But some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again. You can then take it down from some upper shelf, dust it, and tell me what you think of it. I shall probably be too deaf to hear, and too old to understand a word you say, but I shall still be your affectionate Godfather, C. S. Lewis. C. S. Lewis
Quote: Friedrich Nietzsche Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us; nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth.... Through words and concepts we shall never reach beyond the wall off relations, to some sort of fabulous primal ground of things. Friedrich Nietzsche
Quote: Maya Angelou I believe we are still so innocent. The species are still so innocent that a person who is apt to be murdered believes that the murderer, just before he puts the final wrench on his throat, will have enough compassion to give him one sweet cup of water. Maya Angelou
Quote: Voltaire This self-love is the instrument of our preservation; it resembles the provision for the perpetuity of mankind: it is necessary, it is dear to us, it gives us pleasure, and we must conceal it. Voltaire
Quote: Marcus Aurelius If someone is incapable of distinguishing good things from bad and neutral things from either â well, how could such a person be capable of love? The power to love, then, belongs only to the wise man. Marcus Aurelius
Quote: Oscar Wilde Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation. Oscar Wilde
Quote: Rob Huebel Best Friend I kind of got really lucky a couple of years ago: I got to do a part in 'The Descendants,' in Alexander Payne's movie. I just had a small part, but I got to do a few scenes with my best friend George Clooney. Rob Huebel Best Friend
Quote: Voltaire Religion was instituted to make us happy in this life and in the other. What must we do to be happy in the life to come? Be just. Voltaire
Quote: Sam Harris Success The conflict between religion and science is inherent and (very nearly) zero-sum. The success of science often comes at the expense of religious dogma; the maintenance of religious dogma always comes at the expense of science. Sam Harris Success
Quote: Albert Einstein Dog The religion of the future will be a cosmic religion. It should transcend a personal God and avoid dogmas and theology. Covering both the natural and the spiritual, it should be based on a religious sense arising from the experience of all things, natural and spiritual, as a meaningful unity. Buddhism answers this description. Albert Einstein Dog
Quote: Martin Luther King Jr. Wisdom Science investigates; religion interprets. Science gives man knowledge which is power; religion gives man wisdom which is control. Martin Luther King Jr. Wisdom
Quote: Dalai Lama Education If you have religious faith, very good, you can add on secular ethics, then religious belief, add on it, very good. But even those people who have no interest about religion, okay, it's not religion, but you can train through education. Dalai Lama Education
