Our business in life is not to succeed, but to continue to fail in good spirits.

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

I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.

Life will always be to a large extent what we ourselves make it.

To know nothing is the happiest life.

Life is far too important a thing ever to talk seriously about.

The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made.

A chain is no stronger than its weakest link, and life is after all a chain.

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

You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.
