“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning” Albert Einstein

Quote a Week Tuesday: Thoughts by Albert Einstein

For this week, I have chosen a few thoughts from one of my favourite brainiacs: Albert Einstein.
Valuable lessons we can surely all apply to our daily lives:

1. Follow Your Curiosity: “I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.”
2: Perseverance is Priceless: “It’s not that I’m so smart; it’s just that I stay with problems longer.”
3: Focus on the Present: “Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.”
4: Imagination is Powerful: “Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions. Imagination is more important than knowledge.”
5: Make Mistakes: “A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.”
6: Live in the Moment: “I never think of the future – it comes soon enough.”
7: Create Value: “Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value.”
8: Don’t Be Repetitive: “Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”
9: Knowledge Comes From Experience: “Information is not knowledge. The only source of knowledge is experience.”
10: Learn the Rules and Then Play Better: “You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.”

Writing on the Asphalt

Can you decode this message?
Directions to follow?
Someone’s motto?
Or just some drunken Otto,
Trying to score some tacos?

Writing on the Wall

Mysterious graffiti on the wall..
The artistic views of street dwellers under influence of alcohol
Or possibly an alien message; someone who just wanted to make a home call

“Here in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It’s the only way to live
In cars”
Gary Numan – Cars

Yellow Mini-marine

We all want to drive a yellow Mini-marine
A yellow Mini-marine, a yellow Mini-marine
Life is fun in a yellow Mini-marine
A yellow Mini-marine, a yellow Mini-marine
I also wanted one for me
A yellow Mini-marine, a yellow Mini-marine
But turned out there was a larger fee
For a yellow Mini-marine, a yellow Mini-marine
So instead I went out to ski
Instead of driving a yellow Mini-marine, a yellow Mini-marine
