  • Much violence is based on the illusion that life is a property to be defended and not to be shared. –Buddha

  • The universe cannot be read until we have learnt the language and become familiar with the characters in which it is written.It is written in mathematical language, and the letters are triangles, circles, and other geometrical figures, without which means it is humanly impossible to comprehend a single word. –Galileo Galilei

  • Another destructive channel to well being is comfort: it destroys self-confidence and robs one of a sense of responsibility. There is no greater gift we can bestow upon others than a happy smile and a constructive thought of well being. To be happy means that one must first have happiness within, and this comes only through a balanced mind and wisdom. –Alfred J. Parker
