We must all learn how to support ourselves, but we must also learn how to live. We need a lot of engineers in the modern world, but we do not want a world of modern engineers. ~ ~ No power in society, no hardship in your condition can depress you, keep you down, in knowledge, power, virtue, influence, but by your own consent. ~ ~ Trust is not bound up with knowledge so much as it is with freedom, the openness to the unknown. ~ ~ The desire of power in excess caused the angels to fall; the desire of knowledge in excess caused man to fall. ~ ~ It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge. ~ ~ The kind of intelligence a genius has is a different sort of intelligence.

and experience, the higher we can fly. ~ ~ Share knowledge and ideas
