What We Live By:
"A person first starts to live when he can live outside himself, when he can have as much regard for his fellow man as he does himself. We are here to do good. It is the responsibility of every human being to aspire to do something worthwhile, to make this world a better place than the one he found. Life is a gift, and if we agree to accept it, we must contribute in return. When we fail to contribute, we fail to adequately answer why we are here."
- Albert Einstein
"Great spirits have always encountered opposition from mediocre minds. The mediocre mind is incapable of understanding the man who refuses to bow blindly to conventional prejudices and chooses instead to express his opinions courageously and honestly."
- Albert Einstein
quoted in New York Times, March 13, 1940 (1879 - 1955)
"Honesty does not always bring a response of love, but it essential to it.
It is choosing to suffer now in the hope of future gratification rather than choosing present gratification in the hope that future suffering will not be necessary."
- The Road Less Traveled
