My Favorite quotes from Pasteur, Freud, Einstein and Jung
Submitted by Eric Dessner MD
1)“Coincidence is God’s way of remaining anonymous” Albert Einstein
2)“Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.” Albert Einstein
3)“Weakness of attitude becomes weakness of character” Albert Einstein

If I may sum up this list: Build your life around love, art, work and wonder. And don’t be stupid!
