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

The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.

Begin at once to live, and count each separate day as a separate life.

Everything in life is luck.

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

To know nothing is the happiest life.

Life and death are one thread, the same line viewed from different sides.

I take a simple view of life. It is keep your eyes open and get on with it.

Life is never easy for those who dream.

My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best I can.
