| Albert Einstein, at the time of death, said his last words – and remember, the last words are the most important a person has ever spoken in his life, because they are a conclusion, the essential experience. His last words were, "If there is another life, I would like to be a plumber. I don't want to be a physicist. I want to be something very simple – a plumber." A tired brain, a burned brain... and what was his achievement? – Hiroshima and Nagasaki... --Osho Beyond Enlightenment, ch. 1 |
