Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.

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

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

Life opens up opportunities to you, and you either take them or you stay afraid of taking them.

The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.

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

Here is the test to find whether your mission on Earth is finished: if you're alive, it isn't.

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

Life lived for tomorrow will always be just a day away from being realized.

You have succeeded in life when all you really want is only what you really need.
