Trouble no one about his religion. Respect others in their views and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, or even a stranger, if in a lonely place. Show respect to all people, but grovel to none. When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.~ Tecumseh Dec 19, 2006A human being is a part of the whole, called by us, "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 to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is in itself a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security.~ Albert EinsteinMy religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind.~ Albert EinsteinThe most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible.~ Albert Einstein Dec 18, 2006Friendship is the only cure for hatred, the only guarantee of peace.~ BuddhaVirtue is persecuted more by the wicked than it is loved by the good.~ BuddhaWords have the power to both destroy and heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change our world.~ Buddha Dec 15, 2006It is the absolute right of the state to supervise the formation of public opinion.~ Joseph Paul GoebbelsThe restriction of knowledge to an elite group destroys the spirit of the society and leads to its intellectual impoverishment.~ Albert EinsteinThe American people should be made aware of the trend toward monopolization of the great public information vehicles and the concentration of more and more power over public opinion in fewer and fewer hands.~ Spiro Agnew Previous week's quotes Next week's quotes Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
