Quotes

I am a fan of quotes. People share such profound thoughts in so few words. One of my favorites right now is from Albert Einstein. He said, "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." How I wish people understood this concept. I would like to make this quote required reading for most government officials. I can think of a few other people who could also benefit from this concept...(they will remain nameless).

And just for fun…

"A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort." - Herm Albright

"Every day I beat my own previous record for number of consecutive days I've stayed alive." - unknown

I love these too. In just a few words you get to stop and ponder... and maybe smile too. :)

I love quotes. For the reason you gave and also because it's interesting to see how civilation can advance, the world can change but the human spirit and life at its simplified level remain somewhat the same. I mean a man decades ago or hundreds of years ago can offer a message that simplifies life and its meaning in just one sentence.

"All paid jobs absorb and degrade the mind." Aristotle

"Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds." Einstein

"Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people." Eleanor Roosevelt

"A man is but the product of his thoughts, what he thinks, he becomes." Gandhi
