"The ideals which have lighted me on my way and time after time given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been Truth, Goodness, and Beauty. . . The ordinary objects of human endeavor - property, outward success, luxury - have always seemed to me contemptible." - Albert Einstein

"Believe nothing because a so-called wise person said it. Believe nothing because a belief is generally held. Believe nothing because it is said in ancient books. Believe nothing because it is said to be of divine origin. Believe nothing because someone else believes it. Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true." - the Buddha
