ABOUT ME

Since my school time, on purpose, I never tried to be an expert. Instead I prefer to be a generalist and to widen my scope of interests as much as I can. The feeling, that I'm always at the beginning and always too late, is the price, I have to pay for that. But what I get out of it, is the certainty, that life is marvelous and infinite.

PHILOSOPHY

* Love it or leave it.
* Happiness multiplies, if you share it.
* It might be too late to reach the final goal,
but it's never too late to make the first step.
* If you want prosperity for a year, grow corn.
If you want prosperity for ten years, grow trees.
If you want prosperity for hundred years,
grow people.
* Live and let others live.
