Einstein ...
The human mind is not capable of grasping the Universe ...
We are like a little child entering a huge library ...
The walls are covered to the ceilings with books in many different tongues ...
The child knows that someone must have written these books ...
It does not know who or how ...
It does not understand the languages in which they are written ...
But the child notes a definite plan in the arrangement of the books ...
A mysterious order which it does not comprehend ...
But only dimly suspects ...

The Arab And The Camel ...
This mostly forgotten fable comes from the Aesop
collection ...
The moral is so important: When we let things slip into our lives
(bad habits, negative thinking, etc.) they often take over and leave us only
the worse ...
"May I not put my head inside ???"
The Arab assented and the Camel put his head in ...
"Perhaps you will kindly allow me to put my neck in for it is shivering with cold"
"Certainly," said the Arab, and the animal advanced until his long neck was in the warm tent ...
"I’d be more comfortable if I could put my fore feet in" said the Camel, and the Arab moved to one side, for the tent was small ...
"I might just as well come in entirely" said the Camel and he moved in ...
But the tent was too small for both ...
So the Arab had to go outside ...
He Who Knows Not And Knows Not He Knows Not ...
He who knows he who knows not, and knows
not that he knows not, is a fool, shun him ...
He who knows not, and knows that he
knows not, is a child, teach him ...
He who knows, and knows not that he knows, is
asleep, wake him ...
He who knows, and knows that he knows, is wise, follow him ...
