Life isn't a matter of milestones, but of moments.

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

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

What is important in life is life, and not the result of life.

Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

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

Every man dies. Not every man really lives.

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

To live a pure unselfish life, one must count nothing as one's own in the midst of abundance.

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