Beauty and Truth

"The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives."

-Albert Einstein

Amen Albert! Curiosity is a good thing, seeing things with a sense of wonderment and awe and not thinking about exploiting it, but at the same time asking why it exists is something children are so good at. As long as we are seeking truth and beauty, we can constantly discover new things, we will never be adults with stern views, because beauty and truth will never fully be understood and can never be exhausted. 

Looking at the world in a pursuit of truth and beauty will never leave someone angry or bitter or bored. Just like  children, you will always be seeing something new and fascinating so there will not be time for bitter resentments. There is beauty and truth in everything. Even though Einstein only lived until he was 75 or so, I think he unlocked the secret to eternal youth. I believe that constantly seeking the beauty and truth in the world will not leave you feeling old, but incredibly young and small.

Old people admire and envy youth because of their creativity and zest for life. In the pursuit of beauty and truth there is so much room for creativity, to study and seek beauty and truth renews creativity and relights the fire of youthful curiosity and passion for life.
