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

Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.

There is only one difference between a long life and a good dinner: that, in the dinner, the sweets come last.

We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

I have a simple philosophy: Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. Scratch where it itches.

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.

The happiness of this life depends less on what befalls you than the way in which you take it.

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

Life and death are one thread, the same line viewed from different sides.

You have succeeded in life when all you really want is only what you really need.
