"A human being is part of the whole,
called by us the universe, a part limited in time and space.
He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings,
and something separate from the rest---
a kind of optical dilusion of consciousness.
This dilusion is kind of a prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires
and to affection for a few persons near to us.
Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion
to embrace all living creatures
and the whole of nature and her beauty"...Albert Einstein

" I promise to keep on living as though I expected to live forever.
Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years.
People grow old by deserting their ideals.
Years may wrinkle the skin,
but to give up wrinkles the soul"....Douglas MacArthur

Our life is a long and arduous quest after truth"....Gandhi
