Not everything that can be counted counts;
Not everything that counts can be counted.
- Albert Einstein -
Faith and reason. What cannot be counted and what can. Faith cannot be quantified like Physics or Chemistry, but it surely counts. On the other hand, reason is the explanation that science offers and as significant as it may be, it does not touch on all the important questions that we face: Whom should I love? What should I hope for? What should I do? Science alone is not enough to answer such questions. We need both faith and reason working together to guide us everyday, both at home and at work.
We know Einstein for his his tousled hairdo and his famous equation: E = mc2 . But for this scientist who has contributed so much to Physics, it was the little pocket compass that first stirred his quest for knowledge and discovery... that there is much more beyond this earth. What does it cost to stir yours?
