Without a measureless and perpetual uncertainty, the drama of human life would be destroyed.

A man's true character comes out when he's drunk.

He had the look of one who had drunk the cup of life and found a dead beetle at the bottom.

We all owe death a life.

Be thankful that you have a life, and forsake your vain and presumptuous desire for a second one.

It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.

We cannot live better than in seeking to become better.

There's no advantage to hurrying through life.

There is no worse bitterness than to reach the end of your life and realized you have not lived.

One day you will ask me which is more important? My life or yours? I will say mine and you will walk away not knowing that you are my life.

When we do the best that we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another.

If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.

People do not like to think. If one thinks, one must reach conclusions. Conclusions are not always pleasant.
