Quote: Sufficiency in the world

There is sufficiency in the world for man's need, but not for man's greed.

Mahatma Gandhi

Quote: Helping hands and praying lips

Helping hands are always better than Praying lips.

(Email forwarded by Kumar to the RSA group)

Quote: பேச்சு

கோபமாய் பேசினால் குணத்தை இழப்பாய்

அதிகமாய் பேசினால் அமைதியை இழப்பாய்

வெட்டியாய் பேசினால் வேலையே இழப்பாய்

வேகமாய் பேசினால் அர்த்தத்தை இழப்பாய்

ஆணவமாய் பேசினால் அன்பை இழப்பாய்

பொய்யாய் பேசினால் பெயரை இழப்பாய்

...சிந்தித்து பேசினால் சிறப்பாய் இருப்பாய்

I saw this at a cash counter today (Grand Sweets, Adyar):

Level of thinking...

The significant problems we have can't be solved at the same level of thinking with which we created them.
- Einstein
(Sivakumar Sakthibalan has this quote in his Gmail status)

(I am hoping to understand this quote some day! Does he mean that all "significant problems that we have" were created by us or our thinking? That's too presumptuous. Perhaps, it should be understood in the context in which it was made. Or, it is somewhat misquoted...)

Life

Life is what happens to you when your are busy making other plans.
John Lennon

Stupidity

Stupidity is not a crime; so, you are free to go!

Another good one, heard from Prakasam.
