For the happiest life, days should be rigorously planned, nights left open to chance.

Life is never fair, and perhaps it is a good thing for most of us that it is not.

Don't let life discourage you everyone who got where he is had to begin where he was.

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

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.

It is better to create than to learn! Creating is the essence of life.

To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.

The happiness of this life depends less on what befalls you than the way in which you take it.

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

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