14th Dalai Lama: "Given the scale of life in the cosmos, one human life is no more than a tiny blip. Each one of us is a just visitor to this planet, a guest, who will only stay for a limited time.

Far better, surely, to use our short time here in living a meaningful life, enriched by our sense of connection with others and being of service to them."

And I Quote.....
"Five hundred Thousand people were convicted of witchcraft and burned to death in Europe between the fifteenth and seventeenth centuries Their crimes: a pact with the Devil; journeys through the air over vast distances mounted on broomsticks; unlawful assembly at sabats; worship of the Devil; kissing the Devil under the tail; copulation with incubi, male devils equipped with ice-cold penises; copulation with succubi, female devils. Other mundane charges were often added: killing the neighbors's cow; causing hailstorms; ruining the crops; stealing and eating babies. But many a witch was executed for no crime other than flying through the air to attend a sabbat". -Cows, Pigs, Wars, and Witches (pg 207...) by famous Anthropologist Marvin Harris (this book is on the reading list for all Anthropology majors)

Dr. Albert Hofmann, on the occasion of celebrating the 50th anniversary of his famous bicycle ride:
