(Okay, so it's corny. It's still very sweet. The lyrics are below.)

I've compiled a few of my favorite quotes about life on earth and our purpose here.


 
 


 

It's a Small World

Written by: Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman
 

It's a world of laughter
A world of tears
It's a world of hopes
And a world of fears
There's so much that we share
That it's time we're aware
It's a small world after all

There is just one moon
And one golden sun
And a smile means
Friendship to ev'ryone
Though the mountains divide
And the oceans are wide
It's a small world after all

It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small, small world
 

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies, in the final sense,
a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.
This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers,
the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children...This is not a way of life at all in any
true sense. Under the cloud of continuing war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron."


~Dwight David  Eisenhower, President of the United States 1953-1961
 
 

"...The greatest problem of all is the one that has resulted from the past inability of
man and his social and political organizations to rise to the challenge of
nature by discovering the way for all men to live together in peace and
to use the riches of the world for the general welfare and happiness..."


~Linus Pauling, Nobel chemist and pacifist, 1949
 

"How strange is the lot of us mortals! Each of us is here for a brief sojourn; for
     what purpose we know not, though sometimes sense it. But we know from
     daily life that we exist for other people first of all for whose smiles and
     well-being our own happiness depends."

~Albert  Einstein, physicist
 

"Little progress can be made by merely attempting to repress what is evil;
our great hope lies in developing what is good."

~Calvin Coolidge, President of the United States 1923-1929


 

...On that day haShem (literally "the Name", meaning G-d) will be One, and His name will be one. (Zechariah 14:9)
