Andre Gide:

Believe those who are seeking the truth; doubt those who find it.



Albert Einstein:

Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love.



Anaïs Nin:

Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.



Blaise Pascal:

We must learn our limits. We are all something, but none of us are everything.



Bertrand Russell:

Three passions have governed my life:

The longings for love, the search for knowledge,

And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].



Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.

In the union of love I have seen

In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision

Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.



With equal passion I have sought knowledge.

I have wished to understand the hearts of [people].

I have wished to know why the stars shine.



Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,

But always pity brought me back to earth;

Cries of pain reverberated in my heart

Of children in famine, of victims tortured

And of old people left helpless.

I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,

And I too suffer.



This has been my life; I found it worth living.

The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship. -Ralph Waldo Emerson
