Time is the best killer.

We write to taste life twice, in the moment and in retrospect.

If I'm honest I have to tell you I still read fairy-tales and I like them best of all.

Death is not the opposite of life, but a part of it.

The 'good old times'-all times, when old, are good.

It is not how old you are, but how you are old.

Courage is a kind of salvation.

In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.

Money is better than poverty, if only for financial reasons.

Concision in style, precision in thought, decision in life.

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.

Begin to see yourself as a soul with a body rather than a body with a soul.

The less you know, the more you believe.

Life is more or less a lie, but then again, that's exactly the way we want it to be.

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

A man who dares to waste one hour of life has not discovered the value of life

History has shown there are no invincible armies.

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.

The desire to fly is an idea handed down to us by our ancestors who... looked enviously on the birds soaring freely through space... on the infinite highway of the air

What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?

I have no idea what's awaiting me, or what will happen when this all ends. For the moment I know this: there are sick people and they need curing.
