I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.

The art of life is to know how to enjoy a little and to endure very much.

Life is much shorter than I imagined it to be.

A chief event of life is the day in which we have encountered a mind that startled us.

If you love life, don't waste time, for time is what life is made up of.

The basic fact about human existence is not that it is a tragedy, but that it is a bore. It is not so much a war as an endless standing in line.

The most important thing is to enjoy your life - to be happy - it's all that matters.

To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.

Change your life today. Don't gamble on the future, act now, without delay.

To change ones life: Start immediately. Do it flamboyantly.
