Science is not a matter of opinion; there is only one truth.

A man paints with his brains and not with his hands - Michelangelo

A great artist is always before his time or behind it - George Edward

The job of the artist is always to deepen the mystery - Francis Bacon

Land really is the best art - Andy Warhol

"Art is not what you see but what others make you see" 
-French Artist, Edgar Degas

The best scientists themselves are usually artists -  Einstein

Normal is not something to aspire to, it's something to get away from - Jodie Foster

Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people - Eleanor Roosevelt

People have opinions about art, whereas science is a bit more concrete.

“All art should become science and all science art,” declared the German Romantic poet Friedrich Schlegel

Einstein once declared, "Creativity is the residue of time wasted."

When people asked Leonardo da Vinci the secret of his creative and inventing genius, he replied “Saper Vedere,” - to know how to see.

Saper vedere, Sapio audacter …sapere aude
To see is to know – dare to know …dare to be wise-think boldly!

Words have more influence when tied to an identity.

Ideas are not set in stone. When exposed to thoughtful people, they morph and adapt into their most potent form.

"An artist sells what he paints. A painter paints what he sells."- Pablo Picasso

John Cleese - “Creativity is not a talent. It is a way of operating.”

Creativity is combining and connecting things:

Successful scientists have often been people with wide interests. Their originality may have derived from their diverse knowledge … Originality often consists in linking up ideas whose connection was not previously suspected - Beveridge

Only when they have exhausted all the food , water and air ,  they will know they cannot eat money!

Oftentimes the right moment to learn the most is when you’ve done something stupid, not necessarily when you’ve triumphed.

An optimist would say the glass is half full, while a pessimist would say it is half empty. I have a third point of view. For me the glass is always full - half with water and half with air .

To be what we are, and to become what we are capable of becoming, is the only end of life. — Baruch Spinoza

The words “We create our own reality” are the most profound words of wisdom in the universe.

When we know about something, it is mere information…
When we personally experience it, it becomes knowledge…
And finally, when we understand the essence and practice it in our lives, it becomes wisdom!

Your job is not what you do but it is the goal you pursue!

American science fiction writer Philip K. Dick once wrote, "Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, it doesn't go away." And as the Chinese Zen master Huang Po wrote, "The foolish reject what they see, not what they think; the wise reject what they think, not what they see."

by B Olatunji

Everything we do, everything we are, rests on our personal power. If we have enough of it, one word is enough to change the course of our lives. If we don't, the most magnificent piece of wisdom can be revealed to us and that revelation won't make a damn bit of difference. Do you know that at this very moment you are surrounded by eternity? And do you know you can use that eternity, if you so desire? Do you know that you can extend yourself forever in any direction and use it to take the totality of yourself forever in any direction? Do you know that one moment can be eternity? If you had enough personal power, my words alone would serve as a means to round up the totality of yourself and get to the crucial part of it out of the boundaries in which it is contained - Carlos Castaneda

Christ, to my knowledge, was not a Christian, but his teachings became Christianity. He achieved his link with God by direct communion with the ultimate, through meditation. The same thing for Buddha and Buddhism. Before Buddha there was no Buddhism. Buddha was not a Buddhist. Now I ask this question, "If Buddha could achieve God without being a Buddhist, and Christ claimed that he was the son of God without being a Christian, where is the need for any one of us to be in any of these religions?' So I would request all of you to think over this very carefully. - Anonymous

Do not be satisfied with the stories that come before you. Unfold your own myth - Rumi

Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happens to him.

A liar begins with making falsehood appear like truth, and ends with making truth itself appear like falsehood by William Shenstone

Remember, `Even This Will Pass Away' - Swami Chinmayananda

Prepare to meet a man of wisdom by becoming a man of wisdom by Thomas M Easley

You can only let go of your attachments to the extent you trust life - Michael Jeffreys

To understand the importance of your uniqueness, realise that in the history of mankind until now, and ever hereafter, there can never be another you. So remain unique and be yourself.

Many people know so little what is beyond their short range of experience. They look within themselves and find nothing! Therefore they conclude that there is nothing outside themselves, either by Helen Keller
