Every creature is better alive than dead, men and moose and pine trees, and he who understands it aright will rather preserve its life than destroy it.

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

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

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

We are all here for a spell, get all the good laughs you can.

Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.

Life is very interesting... in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths.

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

A person will sometimes devote all his life to the development of one part of his body - the wishbone.

Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets.
