The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want.

There is just one life for each of us: our own.

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

People grow through experience if they meet life honestly and courageously. This is how character is built.

Life is like dancing. If we have a big floor, many people will dance. Some will get angry when the rhythm changes. But life is changing all the time.

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

Life is a succession of moments, to live each one is to succeed.

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

Each day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth, every going to rest and sleep a little death.

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