"A human being is part of the whole called by us universe, a part
limited in time and space. We experience ourselves, our thoughts and
feelings as something separate from the rest. A kind of optical delusion
of consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting
us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to
us. Our task must be to free ourselves from the prison by widening our
circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of
nature in its beauty... We shall require a substantially new manner of
thinking if mankind is to survive."
~ Albert Einstein
