Quote by Albert Einstein

We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.

Summary

This quote implies that while the intellect is a valuable tool, it should not be elevated to the status of a deity. The intellect possesses great analytical abilities, but it lacks the depth and individuality that define a person's identity. It carries the potential for logical reasoning and problem solving, but it does not encompass the emotional and spiritual aspects that make someone truly human. Thus, the quote suggests that we should not solely rely on intellectual prowess, but also nurture and develop the other facets of our being to create a more holistic and balanced existence.

As in nature, as in art, so in grace; it is rough treatment that gives souls, as well as stones, their luster. The more the diamond is cut the brighter it sparkles; and in what seems hard dealing, there God has no end in view but to perfect His people.

I am responsible. Although I may not be able to prevent the worst from happening, I am responsible for my attitude toward the inevitable misfortunes that darken life. Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of my loss, or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have ? life itself.
