Life is too short, or too long, for me to allow myself the luxury of living it so badly.

The earth is like a spaceship that didn't come with an operating manual.

You can give in to the failure messages and be a bitter deadbeat of excuses. Or you can choose to be happy and positive and excited about life.

First, then, God, being all-just, wishes to do justice; being all-wise, knows what justice is; being all-powerful, can do justice. Why then injustice?

I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.

Being a hero is about the shortest-lived profession on earth.

A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left.

Almost all our desires, when examined, contain something too shameful to reveal.

Should you find yourself in a chronically leaking boat, energy devoted to changing vessels is likely to be more productive than energy devoted to patching leaks.

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

All of us are products of our childhood.

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

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.

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

If you break your neck, if you have nothing to eat, if your house is on fire, then you got a problem. Everything else is inconvenience.

I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong.

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

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.

In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.

Life would be tragic if it weren't funny.
