A Fantastic Quote
April 7, 2009

I wanted to share a fantastic quote by Albert Einstein:

The efforts of most human-beings are consumed in the struggle for

their daily bread, but most of those who are, either through fortune

or some special gift, relieved of this struggle are largely absorbed

in further improving their worldly lot. Beneath the effort directed

toward the accumulation of worldly goods lies all too frequently the

illusion that this is the most substantial and desirable end to be

achieved; but there is, fortunately, a minority composed of those who

recognize early in their lives that the most beautiful and satisfying

experiences open to humankind are not derived from the outside, but

are bound up with the development of the individual’s own feeling,

thinking and acting. The genuine artists, investigators and thinkers

have always been persons of this kind. However inconspicuously the

life of these individuals runs its course, none the less the fruits of

their endeavors are the most valuable contributions which one

generation can make to its successors.
