Albert Einstein said:
"A human being
is a part of the whole
called by us universe,
a part limited in time and space.
He experiences himself,
his thoughts and feeling
as something separated
from the rest,
a kind of optical delusion
of his consciousness.
This delusion is
a kind of prison for us,
restricting us
to our personal desires
and to affection
for a few persons nearest to us.
Our task must be
to free ourselves
from this prison
by widening our circle
of compassion
to embrace all living creatures
and the whole of nature
in its beauty."
