What is my life if I am no longer useful to others.

Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself.

There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe,  and it has a longer shelf life.

Do not dwell in the past,  do not dream of the future,  concentrate the mind on the present moment.

I have a simple philosophy: Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. Scratch where it itches.

There are three constants in life... change,  choice and principles.

Every creature is better alive than dead,  men and moose and pine trees,  and he who understands it aright will rather preserve its life than destroy it.

There is only one meaning of life: the act of living itself.

Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.

You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.

If life were predictable it would cease to be life,  and be without flavor.

Every step of life shows much caution is required.

If you would be a real seeker after truth,  it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt,  as far as possible,  all things.

As we advance in life we learn the limits of our abilities.

"Excellence is never an accident.

It is always the result of

High intention,  determined effort and skilled execution."

All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.

Life is a song - sing it. Life is a game - play it. Life is a challenge - meet it. Life is a dream - realize it. Life is a sacrifice - offer it. Life is love - enjoy it.

The only disability in life is a bad attitude.

Above our life we love a steadfast friend.

We are all sentenced to solitary confinement inside our own skins,  for life.

Fake people have an image to maintain... Real people just don't care...!!!!

I love those who yearn for the impossible.

Not knowing anything is the sweetest life.

"Respect doesn't come with Age,

You have to earn it by your behavior."

I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think,  all the walks I want to take,  all the books I want to read,  and all the friends I want to see.

The shoe that fits one person pinches another; there is no recipe for living that suits all cases.

What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?

Life opens up opportunities to you,  and you either take them or you stay afraid of taking them.

Build a man a fire,  and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire,  and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
