“Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.”

“Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again,
but expecting different results.”

“Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.”

Life is like walking through Paradise with peas in your shoes.

A man sooner or later discovers that he is the master-gardener of his soul, the director of his life.

A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.

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.

Life is a game. Money is how we keep score.

Live on, survive, for the earth gives forth wonders.
It may swallow your heart, but the wonders keep on coming.
You stand before them bareheaded, shriven.
What is expected of you is attention

“You’ve gotta dance like there’s nobody watching,
Love like you’ll never be hurt,
Sing like there’s nobody listening,
And live like it’s heaven on earth.”

Time
Like a petal in the wind
Flows softly by
As old lives are taken
New ones begin
A continual chain
Which lasts throughout eternity
Every life but a minute in time
But each of equal importance

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

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle.
The other is as though everything is a miracle.”

“I’m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes,
I am out of control and at times hard to handle.
But if you can’t handle me at my worst,
then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best.”

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.
