Albert Einstein

Quotes  Books     

The ideals which have lighted my way, and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been Kindness, Beauty and Truth.

Albert Einstein

Quotes  Books     

He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem or a rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of Earth's beauty or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in others and given them the best he had; whose life was an inspiration; whose memory a benediction.

Bessie Anderson Stanley

Then read from the treasured volume
The poem of thy chioce,
And lend to the rhyme of the poet
The beauty of thy voice.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

If God had answered all of my prayers
I'd be traveling the world on my own private yacht
Involved in several romantic affairs
With women whose beauty I longingly sought.

If God had answered all of my prayers
I'd have fame and fortune and beautiful weather
I'd sail along the coast of Spain
And if inclined, stay there forever.

But if God had answered all of my prayers
There I'd be, a millionaire
Beneath the sun a world away
From where I met you that rainy day.

Ron Atchison

Quotes       

O, with what freshness,
what solemnity and beauty,
is each new day born;
as if to say to insensate man,
'Behold! thou hast one more chance!
Strive for immortal glory!'

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Author of Uncle Tom's Cabin

I wonder whether the stars are set alight in heaven so that one day each one of us may find his own again....the stars, the desert -- what gives them their beauty is something that is invisible....It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Quotes  Books     

Once you realize that the road is the goal and that you are always on the road, not to reach a goal, but to enjoy its beauty and its wisdom, life ceases to be a task and becomes natural and simple, in itself an ecstasy.

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

When I am working on a problem I never think about beauty. I only think about how to solve the problem. But when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong.

R. Buckminster Fuller

Man with the burning soul
Has but an hour of breath
To build a ship of truth
On which his soul may sail
-Sail on the sea of death,
For death takes toll of beauty, courage, youth,
Of all but truth.
