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

In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.

Everything in life is luck.

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

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

To know nothing is the happiest life.

Life consists in what a man is thinking of all day.

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

The chief danger in life is that you may take too many precautions.

This life is worth living, we can say, since it is what we make it.
