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.

If people do not believe that mathematics is simple, it is only because they do not realize how complicated life is.

Life's pretty good, and why wouldn't it be? I'm a pirate, after all.

History has shown there are no invincible armies.

As you go through life, you've got to see the valleys as well as the peaks.

To one extent, if you've seen one city slum, you've seen them all.

Doing nothing is happiness for children and misery for old men.

Not all things are to be discovered; many are better concealed.

Life did not intend to make us perfect. Whoever is perfect belongs in a museum.

Don't be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.

My art and profession is to live.

He who kisses joy as it flies by will live in eternity's sunrise.

The happiest is the person who suffers the least pain; the most miserable who enjoys the least pleasure.

The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made.

Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them

Crude classifications and false generalizations are the curse of organized life.

We were all at once terribly alone; and alone we must see it through.

The joy in life is his who has the heart to demand it.

A hospital bed is a parked taxi with the meter running.
