gives the right answers, but the
one, who asks the right
questions.

The more we will seek for the
truth outside us, the more we
will move away of it. The more
we will be able to understand
who we are, the more the truth
will assert us in ourselves.

Before being dictated the nature
needs to be obeyed.

A true scientist is not one who
has more acquired, but one who
has more understood.

mankind.
