Albert Einstein
“I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
Albert Einstein

Gautama Buddha

Buddha Siddhartha Guatama Shakyamuni

C.G. Jung
“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.”
Carl Gustav Jung
