The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of a final moment but it is no less a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy.

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

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

A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.

Not life, but good life, is to be chiefly valued.

Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.

Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life.

Part of the secret of a success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.

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

Life opens up opportunities to you, and you either take them or you stay afraid of taking them.
