The way we treat others is the way we ourselves get treated.“ — Ben Carson „We can see that in putting the question "what is man?" what we mean is: what can man become? That is, can man dominate his own destiny, can he "make himself," can he create his own life? We maintain therefore that man is a process and, more exactly, the process of his actions. If you think about it, the question itself "what is man?" is not an abstract or "objective" question. It is born of our reflection about ourselves and about others, and we want to know, in relation to what we have thought and seen, what we are and what we can become; whether we really are, and if so to what extent, "makers of our own selves," of our life and of our destiny. And we want to know this "today," in the given conditions of today, the conditions of our daily life, not of any life or any man“ — Antonio Gramsci „If in our daily life we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it.“ — Thich Nhat Hanh „When we rise out of [the night] into the new life and there begin to receive the signs, what can we know of that which — of him who gives them to us? Only what we experience from time to time from the signs themselves. If we name the speaker of this speech God, then it is always the God of a moment, a moment God.“ — Martin Buber „Life is what we make of it. Travel is the traveler. What we see isn't what we see but what we are.“ — Fernando Pessoa
