Thich Nhat Hanh, Silence: The Power of Quiet in a World Full of Noise

“When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead. It's pain only for others. It's the same thing when you are stupid.”
Richard Feynman

“But I see nothing miraculous about it. Nothing makes one as healthy as happiness, and there is no greater happiness than making someone else happy.”
Stefan Zweig, Letter from an Unknown Woman and Other Stories
