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

Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else.

Life isn't a matter of milestones, but of moments.

Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact.

One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure.

Each day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth, every going to rest and sleep a little death.

The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge.

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

It is one of the beautiful compensations in this life that no one can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.

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.
