Window on Kisiizi

Quote time...


"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."

ALBERT EINSTEIN

===================

"Endless invention, endless experiment,
Brings knowledge of motion, but not of stillness....
Where is the Life we have lost in the living?
Where is the wisdom we have lost in the knowledge?"


T.S.ELIOT

===================

"Every ant knows the formula of its ant-hill,
every bee knows the formula of its beehive.
They know it in their own way, not in our way.
Only humankind does not know its own formula."

FYODOR DOSTOYEVSKY

====================

"We see either the dust on the window
or the view beyond the window,
but never the window itself."

SIMONE WEIL

====================

"So now, from this mad passion
Which made me take art for an idol and a king
I have learnt the burden of error that it bore
And what misfortune springs from man's desire...
The world's frivolities have robbed me of the time
That I was given for reflecting upon God."

MICHAELANGELO
