Life is a dream for the wise, a game for the fool, a comedy for the rich, a tragedy for the poor.

Life will always be to a large extent what we ourselves make it.

It is normal to give away a little of one's life in order not to lose it all.

Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.

Life is like a trumpet - if you don't put anything into it, you don't get anything out of it.

Truth is a deep kindness that teaches us to be content in our everyday life and share with the people the same happiness.

Life is a mirror and will reflect back to the thinker what he thinks into it.

To know nothing is the happiest life.

Life is a dream for the wise, a game for the fool, a comedy for the rich, a tragedy for the poor.
