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

One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure.

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

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

Life is much shorter than I imagined it to be.

I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.

Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith.

Life consists not in holding good cards but in playing those you hold well.

Life is but thought.

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.
