"People will always choose safety over freedom" -Napoleon Boneparte


I am a finite being trying to understand an infinite universe. I am not meant to know the answer to the question of life. I couldn’t handle it, but I think, in truth, I have to try. I have to search to understand, knowing, all the while, that I can only go so far, knowing that I will reach a barrier, and then the hard part is knowing that I must overcome it, and the hardest part is knowing that once I do, I must die.

To those who ponder the most painful questions,

 

those of reality,

 

of spirituality,

 

of existence,

 

and of life.

 

Here's to knowledge.

 

Cheers.

 

The power to question is the basis of all human progress.
Indira Gandhi
