quote

If what you are getting online is for free, you are not the customer, you are the product. 


Jonathan Zittrain, professor of Internet law (b. 1969) 


*****


Those who cannot forgive others break the bridge over which they themselves must pass. 


Confucius, philosopher and teacher (c. 551-478 BCE) 


*****


In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit. 


Albert Schweitzer, philosopher, physician, musician, Nobel laureate (1875-1965)

I so much like the last two. Confucius said so many wise things, and so does Schweitzer.

We are all human beings - however our outsides may differ.

I love the Confucius quote is so wise. But then, he was full of wisdom.
