simple self giving
...being human always points, and is directed, to something, or someone, other than oneself—be it meaning to fulfill or another human being to encounter.

What is called self-actualization is not an attainable aim at all, for the simple reason that the more one would strive for it, the more he would miss it. In other words, self-actualization is possible only as a side-effect of self-transcendence. Viktor E. Frankl

Whatever thought grips the mind at the time of death is the one which will propel it and decide for it the nature of its future birth.

Thus one must think of god constantly. Stephen Mitchell

During all those years of experimentation and research, I never once made a discovery. All my work was deductive, and the results I achieved were those of invention, pure and simple.

This was the only possible way for me to work out the problem. Thomas A. Edison
