The highest manifestation of strength is to keep ourselves calm and on our own feet.

Only he who accepts clashes and conflicts in life, loves life.

Always say 'yes' to the present moment... Surrender to what is. Say 'yes' to life - and see how life starts suddenly to start working for you rather than against you.

Old age is the only disease you dont want to be cured of.

Life should be great rather than long.

Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before.

I can't wait to figure out what is wrong with me, so I can say this is the way that I used to be.

Three things have been difficult to tame: the oceans, fools, and women. We may soon be able to tame the oceans; fools and women will take a little longer.

Short as life is, we make it still shorter by the careless waste of time.

Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.

You never know what life is like, until you have lived it.

The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane.

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do.

You can give in to the failure messages and be a bitter deadbeat of excuses. Or you can choose to be happy and positive and excited about life.

I never think of the future - it comes soon enough.

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.

You have to go on and be crazy. Craziness is like heaven.

Do not erase the designs the child makes in the soft wax of his inner life.

The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference

You can't live your life for other people. You've got to do what's right for you, even if it hurts some people you love.

Within the child lies the fate of the future.
