Do Not Grow Old No Matter How Long You Live Never

Be a loner. That gives you time to wonder, to search for the truth. Have holy curiosity. Make your life worth living.

Do not act as if you were going to live ten thousand years. Death hangs over you.

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existence. 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 each day.

As long as you live, keep learning how to live

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.

If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.
