ALBERT EINSTEIN- QUOTES- SOLITUDE, LONELINESS

ALBERT EINSTEIN- QUOTES- SOLITUDE, LONELINESS:

"A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy?" 

"On how he sees himself: A person with no roots anywhere…a stranger everywhere."

" I am a real lone wolf who has never wholeheartedly belonged to the Stage, to my country, my circle of friends and not even to my family but who, despite all these bonds, has constantly experienced a feeling of strangeness and the need for solitude." 

"Be a loner. That gives you time to wonder, to search for the truth. Have holy curiosity. Make your life worth living."

"Although I have a regular work schedule, I take time to go for long walks on the beach so that I can listen to what is going on inside my head. If my work isn’t going well, I lie down in the middle of a workday and gaze at the ceiling while I listen and visualize what goes on in my imagination."

"I am neither a German citizen, nor do I believe in anything that can be described as a ‘Jewish faith.’ But I am a Jew and glad to belong to the Jewish people, though I do not regard it in any way as chosen."

"My passionate interest in social justice and social responsibility has always stood in curious contrast to a marked lack of desire for direct association with men and women."

"I am a horse for single harness, not cut out for tandem or team work. I have never belonged wholeheartedly to country or state, to my circle of friends, or even to my own family. These ties have always been accompanied by a vague aloofness, and the wish to withdraw into myself increases with the years." 

"When I was young, all I wanted and expected from life was to sit quietly in some corner doing my work without the public paying attention to me."

"It is strange to be known so universally and yet to be so lonely."

"Solitude can be tolerated only up to a certain limit, you know."

"There are two means of refuge from the misery of life – music and cats."

"I lived in solitude in the country and noticed how the monotony of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind."

"The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before."

Muniba Mazari Speech: We all are Perfectly Imperfect

Image
Muniba Mazari is a Pakistani artist, model, activist, motivational speaker, singer, social reformer and television host. She uses a wheelchair due to injuries sustained in a car accident at the age of 21 which makes her Pakistan’s first wheelchair-using model.   We all are Perfectly Imperfect:  “Thank you so much for all the love, for all the warm. Thank you all for accepting me. Thank you very much. Well, I always start my talk with some disclaimer. And that disclaimer is that I never claimed to be a motivational speaker. Yes, I do speak. But I feel like a storyteller. Because where ever I go I share a story with everyone. I believe in the power of words. Many people speak before they think. But I know the value of words. Words can make you, break you, they can heal your soul, they can damage you forever. So, I always try to use positive words in my life. Wherever I go, they call it adversity, I call it opportunity. They call it a weakness, I call it strength. Th...

Selena Gomez Speech: Trust yourself

  Trust yourself “Hi, guys, how are you? So good to see you guys, so you guys having a good night? I have to say that it’s such an honour to be here, it is, I’m so happy to be here, I’m like a nerd and brought my own speech but I hope it’s OK that I take this opportunity to really just spend with you guys and tell you a little bit about my story. I’m not an activist, I haven’t changed the world or led a campaign, I’m here to just tell you my path, so that you hopefully can take something away from it, because I don’t like being honest with — this is a truth — I don’t like being honest with press and interviews, I like being honest with you, directly, which is each and every one of you. Because I feel like I can and I’m just going to start with the basics, so I’m 21 and my mom had, my mom had me when she was 16. And I’m from Grand Prairie, Texas, and she worked four jobs and completely dedicated her life into making mine better. So, to me, she is the definition of a strong wom...
