We can't plan life. All we can do is be available for it.

We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.

What we play is life.

Life in abundance comes only through great love.

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

Everything in life is luck.

Life must be lived as play.

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.

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.

Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.
