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

The great use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it.

I had no blood relatives till I made some.

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

For the happiest life, days should be rigorously planned, nights left open to chance.

To know nothing is the happiest life.

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

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

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.
