The story of life is quicker than the wink of an eye, the story of love is hello and goodbye...until we meet again

During the first period of a man's life the greatest danger is not to take the risk.

Shame is an ornament to the young; a disgrace to the old.

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.

We all owe death a life.

Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.

Live your life and forget your age.

Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal. Live this day as if it were your last. The past is over and gone. The future is not guaranteed.

To be interested in the changing seasons is . . . a happier state of mind than to be hopelessly in love with spring.

The gentleman understands rightousness, the petty man understands interest.

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

You can find the entire cosmos lurking in its least remarkable objects.

Eventually all things fall into place. Until then, laugh at the confusion, live for the moments, and know everything happens for a reason.

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.

Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.

You never know when a moment and afew sincere words can have an impact on a life.

Humility is really important because it keeps you fresh and new.

The reality of the building does not consist in the roof and walls, but in the space within to be lived in.

Most people treat the present moment as if it were an obstacle that they need to overcome. Since the present moment is life itself, it is an insane way to live.

Don't cry for a man who's left you - the next one may fall for your smile.

Hard work, disciplined habits, modesty in living, contentment and cheerfulness.
