    “A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his 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 this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”
    Albert Einstein

    William Shakespeare
    “Olmak ya da olmamak, işte bütün mesele bu!
    Düşüncemizin katlanması mı güzel
    Zalim kaderin yumruklarına, oklarına
    Yoksa diretip bela denizlerine karşı
    Dur, yeter demesi mi?
    Ölmek, uyumak sadece!
    Düşünün ki uyumakla yalnız
    Bitebilir bütün acıları yüreğin,
    Çektiği bütün kahırlar insanoğlunun.
    Uyumak, ama düş görebilirsin uykuda, o kötü.
    Çünkü, o ölüm uykularında
    Sıyrıldığımız zaman yaşamak kaygısından
    Ne düşler görebilir insan, düşünmeli bunu.
    Bu düşüncedir felaketleri yaşanır yapan.
    Yoksa kim dayanabilir zamanın kırbacına?
    Zorbanın kahrına, gururunun çiğnenmesine
    Sevgisinin kepaze edilmesine
    Kanunların bu kadar yavaş
    Yüzsüzlüğün bu kadar çabuk yürümesine
    Kötülere kul olmasına iyi insanın
    Bir bıçak saplayıp göğsüne kurtulmak varken?
    Kim ister bütün bunlara katlanmak
    Ağır bir hayatın altında inleyip terlemek
    Ölümden sonraki bir şeyden korkmasa
    O kimsenin gidip de dönmediği bilinmez dünya
    Ürkütmese yüreğini?
    Bilmediğimiz belalara atılmaktansa
    Çektiklerine razı etmese insanları?
    Bilinç böyle korkak ediyor hepimizi:
    Düşüncenin soluk ışığı bulandırıyor
    Yürekten gelenin doğal rengini.
    Ve nice büyük, yiğitçe atılışlar
    Yollarını değiştirip bu yüzden
    Bir iş, bir eylem olma gücünü yitiriyorlar.

    W. Shakespeare / Hamlet”
    William Shakespeare, Hamlet
