“ A human being is a part of a 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.

I had forgotten about this one but it struck me as brilliant when I first saw it and it is so relevant to what I’m shooting for now. I say again, I so admire Einstein for his genius not only in physics, but about the human mind and our struggles with existentialism.
