“A human being is a part of the whole called by us Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts, and feelings, as something separated from the rest — a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. The striving to free oneself from this delusion is the one issue of true religion. Not to nourish the delusion but to try to overcome it is the way to reach the attainable measure of peace of mind.”–Albert Einstein
(hat tip, which is a really interesting program featuring a Buddhist monk who used to be a cellular biologist–”the happiest man in the world”)
