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.

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

May you live all the days of your life.

In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.

Life is like dancing. If we have a big floor, many people will dance. Some will get angry when the rhythm changes. But life is changing all the time.

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

Life consists in what a man is thinking of all day.

I look back on my life like a good day's work, it was done and I am satisfied with it.

Life is but thought.

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.
