Quotes ...

To believe in the things you can see and touch is no belief at all; but to believe in the unseen is a triumph and a blessing.
~ Abraham Lincoln

Musicians must make music, artists must paint, poets must write if they are to be ultimately at peace with themselves. What human beings can be, they must be. They must be true to their own nature. This need we may call self-actualization.

You will either step forward into growth or you will step back into safety.

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.

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

It you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal not to people or things."


Science without religion is lame; religion without science is blind.

Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions.

Compound interest is the eighth natural wonder of the world and the most powerful thing I have ever encountered.

Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted.
