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

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

There is only one success - to be able to spend your life in your own way.

I think I've discovered the secret of life - you just hang around until you get used to it.

Life is like a trumpet - if you don't put anything into it, you don't get anything out of it.

Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life define yourself.

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

A chief event of life is the day in which we have encountered a mind that startled us.

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

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