Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transition that's troublesome.

Life must be lived as play.

People grow through experience if they meet life honestly and courageously. This is how character is built.

To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.

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

I always like to look on the optimistic side of life, but I am realistic enough to know that life is a complex matter.

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

This life is worth living, we can say, since it is what we make it.

Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?

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