Einstein Rocks my world

Short segue... I just realized that my bird clock is off by alot... that is, the chirp is off by about 7 hours... oh well, I don't want to fix it. Oh yeah, and Richard would be proud of me... I got up this morning, and I get ready for work, and I made my bed. Yay! (?) I think that deserves a cookie. But anyhow... I don't really want to talk today, but I want to share with everyone some great quotes I have come across from various soruces. But I like them...

"It takes both sunshine and rain to make a rainbow."

"
Once you can accept the universe as matter expanding into nothing that is something, wearing stripes with plaid comes easy!" - Einstien

"A man who has never gone to school may steal from a freight car; but if he has a university education, he may steal the whole railroad."
-Theodore Roosevelt


"You've got to be careful if you don't know where you're going, because you might not get there" -Yogi Berra

"The secret of success is to do common things uncommonly well." -John D. Rockefeller

Imagination is more important than knowledge...

Albert Einstein

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Albert Einstein

Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.

Albert Einstein

The ideals which have lighted my way, and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been Kindness, Beauty, and Truth. The trite subjects of human efforts, possessions, outward success, luxury have always seemed to me contemptible.

Albert Einstein

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity.

Albert Einstein

The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is at all comprehensible.

Albert Einstein

The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.

Albert Einstein

We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.

Albert Einstein

Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.

Albert Einstein, "Science, Philosophy and Religion: a Symposium", 1941

A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.

Mark Twain

Always acknowledge a fault. This will throw those in authority off their guard and give you an opportunity to commit more.

Mark Twain

Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest.

Mark Twain

An Englishman is a person who does things because they have been done before. An American is a person who does things because they haven't been done before.

Mark Twain

Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear.

Mark Twain

I personally really like the ones from Einstein, but they are all useful in some fashion or another; if for nothing else, then as a cute saw. Later, ~Liz~
