I believe every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don't intend to waste any of mine.
Remembering that you are going to die, is the best way I know to avoid the traps, of thinking you have something to lose.
There is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humor.
That's one of the remarkable things about life. It's never so bad that it can't get worse.
Calvin in Calvin and Hobbes
1When we were children, we used to think that when we were grown-up we would no longer be vulnerable. But to grow up is to accept vulnerability... To be alive is to be vulnerable.
Life is strong and fragile. It's a paradox... It's both things, like quantum physics: It's a particle and a wave at the same time. It all exists all together.
Life is like a landscape. You live in the midst of it but can describe it only from the vantage point of distance.
To me, life is a gift, and it's a blessing to just be alive. And each person should learn what a gift it is to be alive no matter how tough things get.
It's a wonderful world. You can't go backwards. You're always moving forward. It's the wonderful part about life. And that's terrific.
Life needs to be like a roller-coaster ride with ups and downs. Otherwise, it's not exciting.
Every moment and every event of every man's life on earth plants something in his soul.
Don't worry about the pressure or the responsibility. Just live in it, have fun, and when everything seems to be going right, just stay humble and remember your family.
I don't remember the first half of my life. All I say is a happy childhood is the worst possible preparation for life.
So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservation, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality, nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit.
Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something and that this thing must be attained.
Each life is made up of mistakes and learning, waiting and growing, practicing patience and being persistent.
My philosophy is it's none of my business what people say of me and think of me. I am what I am, and I do what I do. I expect nothing and accept everything. And it makes life so much easier.
You take your life in your own hands, and what happens? A terrible thing: no one to blame.
The most important thing is to enjoy your life - to be happy - it's all that matters.
Life goes by in the blink of an eye. Appreciate the moments.
I know I'm talented, but I wasn't put here to sing. I was put here to be a wife and a mom and look after my family. I love what I do, but it's not where it begins and ends.
People change and that's okay
How boring would it be, if we stayed the same
Life is like a long rollercoaster ride
So strap in and hold on tight
How boring would it be, if we stayed the same
Life is like a long rollercoaster ride
So strap in and hold on tight
Christopher Lee - People Change
1Human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them, but... life obliges them over and over again to give birth to themselves.
