The only real failure in life is not to be true to the best one knows.

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.

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.

Each person must live their life as a model for others.

Your daily life is your temple and your religion. When you enter into it take with you your all.

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

I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive.

If life were predictable it would cease to be life, and be without flavor.

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

It is one of the beautiful compensations in this life that no one can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.
