We all owe death a life.

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

The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.

I restore myself when I'm alone.

All my life I used to wonder what I would become when I grew up. Then, about seven years ago, I realized that I was never going to grow up - that growing is an ever ongoing process.

Breathe. Let go. And remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure.

A beautiful thing never gives so much pain as does failing to hear and see it.

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

One doesn't recognize the really important moments in one's life until it's too late.

The more I see, the less I know for sure.

I desire to live in peace and to continue the life I have begun under the motto 'to live well you must live unseen'

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

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

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

Life is not an exact science, it is an art.

To forgive is not just to be altruistic.

For life in general, there is but one decree: youth is a blunder, manhood a struggle, old age a regret.

Nature is not human-hearted.

The pleasure of the moment begins to wither almost as soon as it blossoms; our pleasures are soon swallowed up in time's relentless torrent.

Live your life as an Exclamation rather than an Explanation

The worldly comforts are not for me. I am like a traveller, who takes rest under a tree in the shade and then goes on his way.
