Nothing in life is more remarkable than the unnecessary anxiety which we endure, and generally create ourselves.

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.

If man limits himself to a satisfied animal existence, and asks from life only what such an existence can give, the higher values of life at once disappear.

Life swings like a pendulum backward and forward between pain and boredom.

Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.

Imagination and fiction make up more than three quarters of our real life.

Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.

Even when you think you have your life all mapped out, things happen that shape your destiny in ways you might never have imagined.

Life will not break your heart. It'll crush it.

Behind every beautiful thing, there's some kind of pain.

By putting forward the hands of the clock you shall not advance the hour.

All my life through, the new sights of nature made me rejoice like a child.

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.

Boys will be boys. And even that wouldn't matter if only we could prevent girls from being girls.

Maybe this world is another planet?s hell.

To do a great right do a little wrong.

There are two things a person should never be angry at, what they can help, and what they cannot.

Life has got to be lived-that's all that there is to it.

Everything we do is infused with the energy with which we do it. If we're frantic, life will be frantic. If we're peaceful, life will be peaceful. And so our goal in any situation becomes inner peace.

When all life is seen as divine, everyone grows wings.

Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal.
