I read this quote this morning and am compelled to share it with those that choose to read it. Enjoy. Tman
“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.”
Albert Einstein
 
Great quote, T-man!


Albert Einstein may have been a scientist, but his spiritual inclination certainly makes him one of history's most important philosophers, as well.
 
An amazingly clear view...and wonderfully succinct...from a man who did his part to push the boulder of human thought forward.
