Here are some quotes from John F Kennedy. I specially like these as I share my birth day with JFK. Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country. - JFK Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man. No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings. - JFK "When written in Chinese, the word 'crisis' is composed of two characters--one represents danger, and the other represents opportunity." -JFK You know nothing for sure . . . except the fact that you know nothing for sure. - JFK -"Mr. Nixon in the last seven days has called me an economic ignoramus, a Pied Piper, and all the rest. I've just confined myself to calling him a Republican, but he says that is getting low." - JFK Let us not seek the Republican answer or the Democratic answer but the right answer. - JFK The only man who behaved sensibly was my tailor; he took my measurement anew every time he saw me, while all the rest went on with their old measurements and expected them to fit me. - Sir Winston Churchill I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals - Sir Winston Churchill What luck for rulers that men do not think. - Adolf Hitler Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. - Ralph Walso Emerson Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved. - William Jennings Bryant I never think of the future - it comes soon enough. - Albert Einstein. My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind. - Albert Einstein Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. - Albert Einstein Yes, we have to divide up our time like that, between our politics and our equat ions. But to me our equations are far more important, for politics are only a ma tter of present concern. A mathematical equation stands forever. - Albert Einstein Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocre minds. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence. -Einstien I sometimes ask myself how it came about that I was the one to develop the theory of relativity. The reason, I think, is that a normal adult never stops to think about problems of space and time. These are things which he has thought about as a child. But my intellectual development was retarded,as a result of which I began to wonder about space and time only when I had already grown up. -Einstien Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity -Einstien If I had my life to live over again, I'd be a plumber -Einstein The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift. -Einstein When asked how World War III would be fought, Einstein replied that he didn't know. But he knew how World War IV would be fought: With sticks and stones! "The wireless telegraph is not difficult to understand. The ordinary telegraph is like a very long cat. You pull the tail in New York, and it meows in Los Angeles. The wireless is the same, only without the cat. " -Einstein "Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new." -Einstein I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense , reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use. - Galileo Galilei It is easier to stay out than get out - Mark Twain ...when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable , must be the truth. - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, (Sherlock Holmes) Better indeed is knowledge than mechanical practice. Better than knowledge is me ditation. But better still is surrender of attachment to results, because there follows immediate peace. Bhagavad Gita (BC 400-) But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown. - Carl Sagan.
