I searched through rebellion, drugs, diets, mysticism, religions, intellectualism and much more, only to begin to find that truth is basically simple - and feels good, clean and right.

I'm a quote-lover. I like this one;"Shoot for the moon.

"If you're going through hell, keep going"-Winston Churchill
--------------------------------------------
Here's a bunch from Einstein. I love his quotes, they're full of wisdom...If A is success, then A=x+y+z. x is work, y is play, z is keep your mouth shut Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school Everyone should be respected as an individual, but no one idolized He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results Intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent them Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere The high destiny of the individual is to serve rather than to rule The monotony and solitude of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality When the solution is simple, God is answering
--------------------------------------------
"I think its obvious we don't know one millionth of one percent about anything"-Thomas Edison Here is my favourite... Churchill failed the Eighth grade three times coz he couldn't pass English of all subjects. After earning his fame, he was to give a speech at that same school one day. This was his entire speech..."Never give up, never give up, never give up" Just in case you didn't know, Einstein's theory of Relativity came to him in a dream, but I'm too lazy to narrate and explain it to you...

Mark Twain: Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover
