Happiness-Glück



The reason why man seeks for happiness is not
because happiness is his sustenance,
but because happiness is his own being; therefore,
in seeking for happiness, man is seeking for himself.

Der Grund, weshalb der Mensch nach Glück sucht ist nicht,
weil Glück seine Nahrung wäre,
sondern weil Glück sein eigentliches Wesen ist;
wenn du also nach Glück suchst, suchst du eigentlich dich selber.

Tricky Translation

Hi dear friends, translations can be tricky, anyone help me?

A beautiful sentence:
"No tie can bind you if your heart is free"

Into German:
"Keine Krawatte kann dich binden, wenn dein Herz frei ist"
Into Spanish:
"Ninguna corbata te puede atar cuando tu corazón está libre"
Into French:
"Aucune cravate te pourra attacher quand ton coeur est libre"
Into Dutch:
"Geen binden kan je vasthouden wanneer je hart vrij is"
Into Italian:
"Nessuna cravatta ti potrà ritenere quando il tuo cuore è libero".

A king is ever a king,
be he crowned with a jewelled crown
or clad in beggar's garb.

Heart of Humanity




Greetings from the city in which
the Sepharads were welcome
after they were forced to leave Andalucia in 1492

In deep gratitude
