Greg Anderson: Quotes on The Meaning of Life
"When we are motivated by goals that have
deep meaning, by dreams that need completion, by pure love that needs expressing -- then we truly live
life."

that they are impossible to achieve in your lifetime"

"All our thoughts and concepts are
called up by sense-experiences and have a meaning only in reference to these sense-experiences. On the other hand,
however, they are products of the spontaneous activity of our minds; they are thus in no wise logical consequences
of the contents of these sense-experiences. If, therefore, we wish to grasp the essence of a complex of abstract
notions we must for the one part investigate the mutual relationships between the concepts and the assertions made
about them; for the other, we must investigate how they are related to the experiences."
-- Albert
Einstein
Whoa!

Wasn't Albert a vegetarian in adulthood & who also got kicked out of school at age 10 & also
said that imagination is more important than knowledge?

Yes, and he said, "Gravity is
not responsible for people falling in love."
Not sure I agree with him entirely, since gravity is a sort of bias
where things are related to each other, or exist in relativity with one another. What does gravity, fundamentally,
do? Gravity establishes relationships throughout the universe. :) Plus when I snuggle with somebody, it feels a bit
like some physical force drawing our bodies together. Call me crazy.

Maybe
Love Happens Due to More Than One Factor?
I heard that Albert wasn't so nice to his wife...
Maybe the
Meaning of Life is To Love One Another?

Maybe the
Meaning of Life is To Love One Another? Can't disagree about the multiple causes of love. And a
single guy with my relationship history probably can't talk too much stuff about love anyway. :)
Too bad if
true about Albert. You can't be brilliant at everything. I hope he at least wasn't abusive.

Well, that's sort of sad if it's true. He seemed like such a nice guy in Night at the
Museum.

After doing a small amount of research on the internet...this is what I found out about
Albert...
He was married twice...The first one was an unhappy one...and they divorced on Valentine's Day
(1919)! The second one was his own cousin and they moved to the states...
I have just heard (via word of
mouth) that he asked his wife to do everything for him in a mean way...so, was kind of rude and cold... (but I
don't have any documents to back that up!)

That's what I have read too. His personal life was a shambles and he didn't treat
women well at all.

Ah, if brilliant men could be as brilliant in personal relations...
