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.

Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets.

The great use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it.

With the past, I have nothing to do nor with the future. I live now.

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

Life is too short to work so hard.

Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.

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

Most people have never learned that one of the main aims in life is to enjoy it.

The only real failure in life is not to be true to the best one knows.
