All animals except man know that the ultimate of life is to enjoy it.
Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by dragging
day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways
Too much credit is given to the end result. The true lesson is in the struggle that takes place between the dream and reality. That struggle is a thing called life!
Life is a tragedy for those who feel, and a comedy for those who think
Decay is inherent in all compounded things.Strive on with diligence ( Budha)
Attack life, it's going to kill you anyway.
The happiness of the bee and the dolphin is to exist. For man it is to
know that and to wonder at it.
It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees
We all have to die some day, if we live long enough
Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of life is, but rather
recognize that it is he who is asked.
Do you love life? Then do not squander time, for that's the stuff life
is made of
If time be of all things most precious, wasting time must be the greatest
prodigality, since lost time is never found again; and what we call time
enough always proves little enough
Life is the childhood of our immortality
Live to win, dare to fail
Happiness in the present is only shattered by comparison with the past.
Life is good when we think it's good. Life is bad when we don't think.
Seeing the light is a choice, not seeing the light is no choice.
Thoughts are the gun, words are the bullets, deeds are the target,
the bulls-eye is heaven.
Don't take life too seriously; you will never get out of it alive.
Forty is the old age of youth; fifty is the youth of old age
To rid ourselves of our shadows -- who we are -- we must step into either
total light or total darkness. Goodness and evil
Life is a great big canvas; throw all the paint you can at it.
Life is ours to be spent, not saved
Life is like a sewer -- what you get out of it depends on what you put into it
He who has the courage to laugh is almost as much a master of the
world as he who is ready to die.
The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time
The quality of a person's life is in direct proportion to their commitment to
excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor
The brave don't live forever, but the cautious don't live at all. Here's to the brave!
If death did not exist today it would be necessary to invent it.
Middle age is when you've met so many people that every new person you
meet reminds you of someone else
What does not destroy me, makes me stronger.
We are here to add what we can to life, not to get what we can from it
We come and go just like ripples in a stream.
I have all the time in the world to worry about death when I am dead
What makes old age so sad is not that our joys but our hopes cease
There is only one blasphemy, and thatis the refusal to experience joy.
Happiness is not a state to arrive at, but a manner of traveling.
There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion
Misery is optional.
Happiness is good health and a bad memory.
If we couldn't laugh, we'd all go insane.
Comedy is tragedy plus time.
All who would win joy, must share it; happiness was born a twin.
And when it rains on your parade, look up rather than down. Without the rain, there would be no rainbow.
Be happy. It is a way of being wise.
If life doesn't offer a game worth playing , then invent a new one.
Learn not only to find what you like, learn to like what you find.
Realize that if you have time to whine and complain about something then
you have the time to do something about it
Even the the most tempting rose has thorns.
Nothing can bring you peace but yourself.
So of cheerfulness, or a good temper, the more it is spent, the more it remains.
Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us
or we find it not
There is more to life than increasing its speed.
If I could drop dead right now, I'd be the happiest man alive.
Expect everything, and anything seems nothing. Expect nothing, and anything seems everything.
