“Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler. A man should look for what is, and not for what he thinks should be. We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them. A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?

All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree. It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer.”
