Thought for Today

Albert-Einstein-630x553.jpg
 
A human being is a 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
 
"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."
A. Einstein
 
"Children are not a distraction from more important work. They are the most important work." ~Sally Clarkson~
 
No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, his background, or his religion.
People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart
- Nelson Mandela

Then woe is me.
 
If you cannot read all your books, at any rate handle, or asit were, fondle them — peer into them, let them fallopen where they will, read from the first sentence thatarrests the eye, set them back on the shelves with your ownhands, arrange them on your own plan so that if you do notknow what is in them, you at least know where they are. Letthem be your friends; let them at any rate be youracquaintances. If they cannot enter the circle of your life,do not deny them at least a nod of recognition.
Winston Churchill
