Strangers Passing Through

Strange is our situation here upon earth. However, there is one thing that we do know. That man is here for the sake of other men. Above all for those upon whose smile and well being our own happiness depends. And also for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy.

Albert Einstein

What's important in this life

I cannot believe that the purpose of life is to be happy. I think the purpose of life is to be useful, to be responsible, to be compassionate. It is, above all to matter, to count, to stand for something, to have made some difference that you lived at all. - Leo Rosten
